Tuesday was National Voter Registration Day and if you haven’t registered to vote then it will take only two minutes on their website! Nonprofit Vote has specific information about voting in your state, so their is no excuse not to vote during the mid-term elections in November. After another riveting and crazy week in politics from the United Nations General Assembly to Senate Confirmation hearings, I once again realized how important it is to vote for people that represent the values I find important. Rock the Vote!
One of my favorite magazines is REAL SIMPLE . In the August 2018 issue I loved the humorous article, Live the Feline Way by Sarah Schmelling. Thanks, Sarah, for a good laugh and possible a new philosophy in my life!
I belong to the Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators (SCBWI). A great organization that supports all children book writers (and illustrators) from picture books to young adult. This weekend the Florida Region’s 2018 Boot Camps will help us be the best we can be. Can’t wait to dive into my intensive workshop tomorrow!
I enjoyed Cathi’s Thursday post on the South Dakota Festival of Books and I especially loved the pumpkin picture she took. Not only did I get some good writing tips, but I also really want to visit a fall climate (it’s 6:45 am here and already 84 degrees … and that isn’t accounting for the humidity). But since I might not get as far north as South Dakota, I might have to settle for cooking some of the delicious looking recipes on TASTE OF HOME. I think I’ll turn on my fake fireplace and cook some of the Pumpkin Sausage Soup.
