Topic: what I'm up to
Yes, I'm still alive! I just received an email from an author and she asked if I had let my blog die. I haven't been able to access it from my studio computer so now that I have a new fandangled laptop (to replace the dead one from February, thank goodness for tax return money!) I thought I would attempt again and, wha lah!
So what has happened since June?! Aside from everyone in the family succumbing to every virus and flu going around this winter all at the Booth household are well. I even managed to survive a car accident, no injuries just stirred and well shaken!
Spent Book Week in a whirlwind visit to Canberra, three schools a day, whew! Had a ball.
STILL WAITING to hear from the publisher about the manuscript submitted. They have shown interest but are taking a long time to get back to us. I hope to know soon as we are off jetsetting to my Opa's 90th in Amsterdam in November and I need to get my head around what needs to be done in '09.
Kip is well underway (the rooster book) and I have only got two internal pages to complete and then it's the fun stuff, the cover and ends etc. Nearly there. It needs to be finished before we head off. Not back until mid January.
Meredith Costain and I have been celebrating the launch of our new book "No Noise At Our House", (Windy Hollow Books).We had a pyjama party at Stories Book Store in Launceston which included a spotlight search for escaped animals and a wonderful reading by Meredith with sound effects from the kids. Thanks Damian and the staff from Stories, it was wonderful.
Any way, back to work. Keep being creative all....
