Continued the character research today. I am refreshing my memory on what owls eat and how they behave. :) Also started a second book today. It was an idea I had planned on shelving until I wrote the owl book, but suddenly today I had all these ideas for the 2nd one. So now I am working on 2 books. I think that will work well for me though...

Character Research

Went to the library today to get some books on owls. The main character in my story is an owl, so I figured I better do some research into their habits/food preferences, etc. Also picked up some children's books to use for guidance....

Children's Book

Well, after many years (about 9 or 10 to be exact) of thinking about writing a children's book, I am finally working on this goal. When we moved to Las Vegas I decided to really begin the process of writing. I have attended monthly writer's group meetings, bi-monthly writer's workshops, and even a great writing conference for the past few months. And after all that... finally have put pen to paper on my children's book. I have several ideas but am starting with one that focuses on accepting others with differences and embracing what makes us unique.
I know it will be a long process and who knows if it will ever get published.... but here goes!
