Labor Day Saturday Book Signing & Art Show!


A call for Young Artists for the "Ponies & Puppies" Contest!


I'll be at Wilson's Books on Dr. M.L.King St in St. Petersburg, Florida on Saturday, Sept. 5, 2009 from 11 am - Noon for a special Labor Day Saturday Event. Along with readings, face/hand paintings and book signings I'm once again asking young artists to draw a horse or dog for a prize!
The winner of the horse category will win one of the BELOVED HORSES series and the dog category will receive WOOGIE’S TRAVELS – LOOKING FOR A FRIEND. Children through age 16 years old may submit their entry at Wilson’s Fine Books on 2394 Dr. Martin Luther King St. from now until noon on September 5th, when winners will be announced. Results will also be posted on this blog after the event.
My horse books are illustrated collections of true short stories describing the unique bonds between horses and their riders. The anecdotes are amazing, amusing and inspirational. The third book of the series, BELOVED SPORT HORSES released in 2007, features several equines from Florida. I'm looking for more horse owners to interview for the fourth book in the series to be released in 2010. Submitters receive a complimentary copy upon publication.
