Getting Closer!

I finally finished my book! The proofreading is done and I'm now talking to publishers! I plan to make my decision by next week. The book won't have all the illustrations I have done, but one will appear on the cover.

Last Sunday (in the cold and snow) My friend Shmoo and me went to the river, at the cove, where much of the action in my story is located, to take pictures. I wanted one of me by the cove. It was a very cold day, and one picture had to be discarded completely because of the 'chilled' look on my face!

Here's the cove, you can see Detroit in the background.
Here's the cove in the summertime. The summer growth gives the cove shelter from the main stream of the river.

My book's final title is "Under the North Star - An Olde Sandwich Towne Story" I'm using my real name as the author - Joanna Bullard.

I'll keep you posted!

Have a great day!

I am thrilled and can hardly wait to get a copy. What a labour of love ! Many years ago you gave me a book for my birthday and now you have your own book. I am very happy for you.
