Here’s the next visual clue to the contents of THE SECOND SPY…

(It will make sense if you read the book, I promise.)

Lots of other good news to share:

First, my twisted little story, “Miss Pipperman’s Parrot,” has just been accepted by The School Magazine, the oldest children’s publication in Australia!  No word yet on when it will appear, but I’ll be thrilled whenever it does.

Second, I received word that my poetry chapbook, Cherma, was selected as a finalist for the 2012 Eric Hoffer Award.

Third, I’ll be at the Barnes & Noble Galleria in Edina, MN for Concord Elementary’s book fair tomorrow — that’s Saturday, May 19 – at 11:00 a.m., to read, sign, and chat.

Now I’m off to water some lettuce seedlings.
