Just wanted to drop in on a rainy day and say hi to you. I hope everything is great with you. We are excited, D.B. Pacini's youth/YA fantasy novel, THE LOOSE END OF THE RAINBOW, is being published in one week. Actually, she’s so excited that she is driving me a little nuts. She is donating some books and 10% of the proceeds to a charitable organization that helps Native American youth.
I also wanted to tell you about our free Starry Night Creative Artists Community. We started it last summer and it is growing like a weed, becoming international. It is open to creative artists of all mediums and we showcase organizations and individuals that help others. It is a cool community. I hope you’ll check it out. Just click on this link and then scroll down to: Starry Night Creative Artists Community: www. astarrynightproductions. com
I can wholeheartedly say that I have never seen such a beautiful baby girl in my entire life. Breathtaking. What a truly sweet disposition on a 4 month old too. Congrats. BTW - ur recent GGC video of Fable (u telling her so softly how you love her) made me tear. Thx for sharing ur beautiful nature/family and inspiring me.
