Good News Patrol: Now in 4 Vermont Bookstores!

BUY LOCAL is big in Vermont. Booksellers are All In to promote local authors, way more than other places. Huge thanks to:

Royal Towne Gifts (Randolph)
Yankee Bookshop (Woodstock)
Bear Pond Books (Montpelier)
Barnes & Noble (Burlington)

Today’s high point: goddess Teresa at B&N putting my very orange book on both the Graduation and Local shelves. 🥰 Highest point: seeing “Signed Edition” stickers being applied by Goddess to humble tome.

Then my nephew’s last-place baseball team beat the first-place team. Can it be?!

But enough about us. Do comment with your own Good News. So needed! ❤️

My Favorite Artist-in-Residence

Ha, I know an Artist-in-Residence! At the large, cool, and prestigious Hudson River Museum in Yonkers, NY. You can take classes with her there, elsewhere, or online.

She makes beautiful art out of single-use plastics and more.

The Little Engine That Could, Part Deux

In December, 1,500 toys were collected one by one for the children of our Vermont town’s “sister city” in Ukraine. Once again, our town thought it would be a miracle if our shipment made it. Once again, we gave it a go anyway.

Thought it might be nice to remind people of the good in this crazy world. Thank you to everyone who helped make it happen. Here’s a great little video from the woman behind the sleigh. Break out the Kleenex®.
