Half & Half | Lyric James

Thursday, August 17th, 2006 | Uncategorized

Oh well, half my day was okay, the latter half was bad. The AM session was pretty good. We had an author come and basically do a *booktalk* with us about his book, read excerpts, and gave out handouts/lessons plans on how to tie his book to English and Social Studies. He was funny and told anticdotes about how he wrote the book and where he got his ideas from. But the afternoon was terrible. So, I guess I can take half and half. Tomorrow I*ll be back at my school and we*ll be getting ready for the first day and analyzing our test scores from the previous year. Maybe it*ll be a better day.

New Cover!!!

I got my cover for One Day At A Time and I love it. What do you think? I had so much fun writing this story. I began working on the edits for it today too. I finished the easy part, grammar, sentence structure…stuff like that. Tomorrow I*ll handle the harder part – editor comments. Ack!

Aw! Thanks guys, I’m glad you like the cover…and hope you’ll like the book as well when it comes out. I swear those cover artists at Cobb are awesome! And yes, it is definitely hot down here in the south. I can’t wait until mid-October.

Hi Michelle, glad you like my blog. I give that credit to my web designer, Jodici Belle who does spectacular work. She designed my website and did the blog to match it. I love it!!
