Hi, Anne. How are you? :o) I want to read all of these books!!!
Hello Anne, It was a pleasure meeting you at the Kennedy Center last Saturday. I see you have recommended "Bee-bim bop!," the poem/book Linda Sue Park so joyfully presented on that occasion. I plan to make some this weekend!
I was very moved by your reading from "After Gandhi" and wrote something about it on my blog...
Hi, Tarie and Jane,
Thanks for checking in, and letting me know you were here!
I'm SO bad at keeping up with my blog, so I'm always amazed to find that people actually read it. Things are slowing down a little for me this fall, so I hope to be more consistent with my posts.
Tarie, thanks so much for your wonderful interview with me.
Jane, thanks for the great mention on your blog of our meeting at the Kennedy Center.
Best to you both,
Annie
