LOL! Ya – okay…maybe it’s just that whole “15 minutes” everyone supposedly gets…
Anyway, a guy who writes for the Dallas Morning News, Matt Wixon, emailed me asking about our Staycation! (He obviously found my blog entries…dunno if he’ll be back, but HI MATT! if you are 😉 ) He’s writing a book about Staycations and just wanted to chat with me about ours. How cool is that??
If you didn’t get the chance to read about our week, here are the posts:
And Matt mentioned that I’ll get a copy of the book when it comes out. Sweet!
As long as we’re talking about how famous I am (tee hee!)…I edited a book that’s sold on Amazon! The Pet Mouse is a cute children’s story with kick-butt illustrations. (And no, I don’t get any royalties…) As proof that I actually did it, this is Crystal’s website. She mentions me in the Bios page on there 😉 The bio is from before Logan was born though… (And Cheryl, if you’re reading this, I know – it doesn’t hold a candle to your book 😉 heh)
I can also say that I’m on a record/cassette/CD! A well known Vermont folk singer, Jon Gailmor, wanted kids to back up his song, Dirt!, and knew my kindergarten/grade school teachers…so we had a field trip to the recording studio and sang the chorus with him. Our picture is even on the back of the album. And the song received an honorary mention in 1984 as Best Children’s Song from the National Academy of Independent Record Distributors! We also got a tour of the radio station Jon worked at and even made an appearance with him on PBS! HEY! So, I’ve been on TV too. *grin*
What are your 15 minutes? If you write about them, I’ll link to you at the bottom here…just let me know 🙂
