Cillian News

I saw my friend Colleen the baker (when I stopped by to get scones for royal wedding viewing).

She had some great news she wanted me to share with you. She sent out a few chapters of the Cillian story to some agents (the first, probably most difficult step in getting a book published) and....not one, but two asked her to send the entire manuscript for consideration.

This is a very big deal! She changed the title, at your suggestion, so she asked me to be sure to thank you.

I'll keep you posted on her -- and Cillian's -- progress. Maybe I should bring some of her cookies to the next meeting. Hmmmmm......(or should I say, yum).

Doll People Reminder

Our Next Meeting is Tuesday, May 17 at 6:45. We'll be talking about The Doll People.

In June we'll meet on the 21st (the last day of school for many of you, I think). Our June book is Jade Green. 

Thanks for your help with the book ideas about peer pressure and middle school. Your ideas were excellent (of course)!
