Are you interested in becoming a published writer? I offer children's picture book critiques for serious writers who want to take their work to the next level. Please do not send me rhyming texts. Not because I don't love them, I do, but I am not a poet. A poet is best qualified to give you guidance in this area. Please e-mail your manuscript to pamelapmayer@gmail.com. I will return your manuscript within six weeks. Naomi Herman, aspiring author.

It is a wonderful treat to leave my desk and visit with children. I have spoken at schools, book fairs, festivals, bookstores, and libraries, and to adults at SCBWI. And the Santa Clara Reading Association. My presentations to children vary by grade level and age, and last from about half an hour to an hour. There is always time for questions and book signing. I've written a special Reader's Theater version of. Don't Sneeze at the Wedding", which is available as a free PDF download.

The real story is filtered through my imagination, memories and emotions surface, and people, places, and conversations I have observed and listened to contribute. In the end something all of its own evolves. WHAT IS YOUR WRITING SCHEDULE? And what should I cook for dinner? Uh, oh.I think I had better do a little more work tonight. ARE YOU WORKING ON A NEW BOOK?
