Join me today at Middle Grade Mafioso for an interview where I talk a bit about my background with learning disabled students, my experience blogging with fellow mid-grade authors at Project Mayhem, and the story behind my newest book, OVER IN THE WETLANDS.
Here’s a peek at what I have to say:
My family moved to Louisiana a year and a half after Hurricane Katrina. All the local talk was about wetland erosion and attempts at preservation. I’d never heard of this pressing ecological problem discussed nationally, and after falling in love with the culture, the community, and the gorgeous surroundings, I decided to write about this amazing slice of our country.
Loved the interview.
