Are You There Blog...it's me, Margaret?




Hello all....

so anyone know what my blog title is a reference to, or am I showing my age in a really horrible way.

anyway, I know I have been missing in action but I swear to you all....I've been working on something that was taking a chunk of time.

It has long been a dream of mine to self publish a small book of selected poems and art to accompany it....the problem being....I am petrified to show my poetry to anyone.

it was a conundrum

now, I know....I know when I am scared of something that means it is something I really need to do.

so, as of right now, my first small collection of Poetry is available in my shop, it is called "Words & Pictures" and I hope you like it very much.

phew...ok, it's scary even blogging about it.

anyway...I have more exciting news that I will be posting about tomorrow and the new Petite Heights strip will be posted later today as well.

xoxoxo

I am so excited for you. It looks phenomenal! I will certainly be adding it to my collection.

I wouldn't worry, Judy Blume is ageless, isn't she? ;)

Good for you - I don't show my writing to anyone, nor my drawings...I tried to and was hurt by the reaction so back in the box they went. I'm proud of you.

As soon as I read that I wanted to go dig up my copy and read it again! Well, I'm sure they still have Judy Blume at the library :) Lovely blog!
