Busy Days.

This week has been busy, busy, busy. I’ve been visiting schools and have had two great days. Burringbar Primary – what an excellent place and what great story makers they turned out to be. I’m thinking we’ll all be reading their books one of these days.

And the other school – the lovely Clayfield College with lots of kids and a lovely old building right in the middle. We made up stories about bears and boys and Santa and fake Santas and all sorts of things. And my hand is still sore from signing books.

This is only a very short blog today – I’m busy working on my new novel and I’m dying to get back to it and do a drawing for Deefer the newest Guide Dog – who’s still learning how to do all things he has to do. I met my publisher, Leonie, yesterday and she said she liked it so far – and that’s good enough for me.

The weather is hot, hot, hot and my dogs are stretched out cooling their bellies. I might go and cool mine in the pool and then…Deefer! I’m going to draw him climbing up on a laundry tub trying to get an old washboard down…should be interesting.  Not sure which way I’m going to place him yet…from the side? Front? Back?….I think back might be fun.

So take care – and don’t get sunburnt.

Till next time.
