Author J. W. Julian


I enjoyed meeting with a writer friend J. W. Julian earlier this week to talk about books, writing, & life! Check out her webpage & her wonderful book Ebby the Magnificent. She painted all of the illustrations in this beautiful book & wrote an imaginative story about an Elusive Baby Bunny's adventures. Mark your calendar to meet J.W. in person on February 2 at UnderBar in Vancouver, Washington from 5-7ish pm.

Let it Snow Kid Activity

 

Do you like snow? The characters in my fantasy novel grew up inside a mountain in the caves of Nadavir. They've never seen the snow! This month's FREE Kid's Club activity will give the kids in your life an opportunity to teach the Nadavir friends about snow as they draw and color imaginative snow objects and scenes! When you sign up for my newsletter, you'll get access to this activity and over 30 more activities for your kids!

2. Send my monthly newsletter and add one activity each month to the Nadavir Kids Club.
3. Retake Sarra Cannon's Publish and Thrive course in February to refresh my publishing skills.
Have you set any goals for 2024? Would you care to share? We can support each other throughout the year!
