Hi All! Welcome to my blog about writing fiction, with a focus on writing for kids and teens. I am jumping into the She Writes fourth annual Bloggers' Ball a bit late, but better late than never! Meg Waite Clayton, the fabulous host, is an inspiration to all, for her generous community-building. It's always a thrill to discover a new blog that talks about whatever's been on your mind, whether it's what's happening with digital pubbing, or tools to creating a vivid antagonist, or a description of a novel that is just what you're in the mood to read.
As for me, I write YA and middle-grade fiction, and I also illustrate. You can see a couple of my books on my right-side banner, and my banner up top is a pen and ink drawing of mine.
Without further ado, I will now go Blog Hopping, and I encourage you to click into the Bloggers' Ball logo above (The bookshelf) to do some hopping and dancing of your own!
Cheers, Catherine
Hey Catherine,
ReplyDeleteBetter late than never, huh. So, what are your current projects? By the way, I didn't see a guest book for me to sign my about-to-be-famous signature (LOL!)

Hi Catherine, thank you for visiting my blog today. Signing in from She Writes Bloggers' Ball. I signed up for both your blogs.
ReplyDeleteHi Catherine,
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing that you're an illustrator too. I have read Refugees, and I like the idea of the choose-your-own-adventure, too. Nice seeing you around the SheWrites blogger ball.

Hi, Catherine! I'm stopping by for the ball. I hope you are enjoying your weekend.
ReplyDeleteDiane, cool that you read Refugees. Still relevant as far as what's happening in Afghanistan. And to those whose blogs I visited, this is a very fun hop!
ReplyDeleteHello Catherine - I'm also here from She Writes. It's a great way to find new blogs, isn't it? I really love the banner for your blog - you're very talented.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Helen. I'm getting more back to my illustration as time goes on.
ReplyDeleteI love your illustration above, very nice, Catherine! What talent you have!
ReplyDeleteHey Catherine, I have hopped in and am looking forward to reading more.
ReplyDeleteCatherine, how do you get into this Blogger's Ball?
ReplyDeleteThanks, Candy & V! Candy, click into the bookshelf logo above. It'll take you to the Bloggers' Ball site.
ReplyDeleteHi Catherine,
ReplyDeleteFantastic illustrations. Glad to meet a sister in the "distant and foreign." Hope we can talk more about all things deliciously sinister and scapegoatish, soon. I'm very much enjoying the SW ball and so glad to be in touch, j
Love your blog, Catherine. Looked around a bit, but will definitely be back for more.
ReplyDeleteHappy Blog Hopping ... It's a great community to mingle in!
ReplyDeleteYes, sinister and scapegoat-ish. The darker the better for plot points.
ReplyDeleteI saw the note about this, but couldn't jump in until now. Maybe next time. :) But I wanted to stop by and say hi!

(blogger is doing weird things, so I hope this posts okay)
Great to see a familiar face at the 'blog hop' . . . and discover some new ones.
ReplyDeleteHi Tabitha & Deborah, yes, it was fun to take a peek at what you guys are up to!
ReplyDeleteGreat to meet you and discover your blog, Catherine.
ReplyDeleteI tried to post before but Blogger defied and rejected me! I wanted to say that I really love your illustrative style. Do you have an online portfolio? I'll share it with my art director here at work!
ReplyDeleteJenny, that's so nice!!! I don't have a lot on my website, but I have a few things... here's the link to the art page--Thanks!!:
