Countdown is On. . . . . . .

The countdown is on!

The first copies of "Don't Pick Up The Ham With Your Fingers" will be available Monday. Yep, that's Halloween. It could be worse; it could be April Fools' Day.

And, yes, I'm SO excited and so very, very nervous.

Mostly though, I'm really excited for the 18 illustrators who have artwork in the book. It is their artwork that makes the book, and I am so grateful to have crossed paths with all of these talented people.
