I’ve always been one to gaze at the stars. I find them endlessly fascinating and could spend hours doing so. As long as it’s not freezing cold like it can be in winter here in Alaska when it’s the best time to go star gazing in Anchorage (because it’s ACTUALLY dark unlike summer). So naturally, […]
Rafflecopter winners!
I’m very excited to announce today’s TWO winners. Each will receive a copy of one of Matt Forrest Esenwine’s books reviewed in the last Simply 7 interview.
Simply 7 with Matt Forrest Esenwine & GIVEAWAY–“Flashlight Night” and “Don’t Ask a Dinosaur”

Holidoodle 2018 meager Assignment & prize

Simply 7 interview with Sherry Howard–Rock and Roll Woods
Today’s interview is intriguing. Here is a picture book that could stand alone as a story, and maybe even have something to say about accepting others or dealing with change. Yet there is also a subtle educational chord that is being played in the background of this musical story. This is how you write a […]
