Thank you to Krista and her Candyland Crew over at Lollipops & Books for our first review for Monster Beneath my Bed. Head on over there and check it out. She is also hosting a giveaway, so be sure to enter while you are there.
As for what comes next, Adventures of Bear B. & Stone is coming along fairly well. The story that once started out as a mystery type story has fast become a story about bullying and overcoming adversity. A story that I think speaks to the heart of the matter. I believe that there are only a few chapters to go. Of course once the chapters are finished, there will still be editing and rewriting galore.
Clark has not yet begun to work on the illustrations yet. These will be ink drawings. There will only be one per chapter as this is not a picture book. Mostly, we just need to settle in and get to working on it. Now that the kids are in school, and Monster has been released, it really shouldn't be too terribly hard to get these last chapters finished. (In theory anyways).
So, that is about all that we have going on. I am tossing around some ideas for some more books. Dragons and aliens seem to be at the top of my list. These will be illustrated children's books, but geared to the age group between our picture books and chapter books. At least that is a thought I am working on. Who knows, they could end up becoming picture books or chapter books. As of now, I just know that I want to work with dragons and aliens in the future.
Next month is NaNoWriMo, so my alter ego will be coming out to work on her next novel. Perhaps I should be thinking on what I want to do there too. Maybe dragons and aliens will play a role. LOL.
Good luck to everyone who enters this newest giveaway. Remember, if you read Monster Beneath my Bed or any of our other books, please post a review at Amazon, Barnes&Noble and/or Goodreads. Thanks.
