Heather Tomlinson's - The Swan Maiden |
|
On Sunday I headed over to Adventures for Kids bookstore for the launch of Heather Tomlinson's first novel - The Swan Maiden. For those of you not in the know, Heather and I work with the same editor (Reka Simonsen) over at Henry Holt and Company. It was nice to celebrate not only a fellow Holt author's success, but also a fellow critique group member—Heather and I go back to around 2001ish. Anyway, lots of folks from the world of kids' lit showed up and we partied like only kids' book writers know how...in other words, the snacks were plentiful! I even baked chocolate chip cookies.
Fellow authors in attendence were Alexis O'Neill , Tina Nichols Coury , and Carol Heyer , to name a few. And of course the star of the day Heather Tomlinson. A pretty great day. You should have been there. Greg

“What a great presentation! Many visuals brought the "talk" to life. The students loved the spooky laughter contest and to be able to play a part from the book. Greg Trine really relates to kids!” Pam Zirion 2nd Grade Teacher, Hawthorne Elementary School
