Writing News, Phil of the Future, and the Iron Queen


Writing news: My short story, The Gift Exchange, will be published in the Stories For Children Magazine Holiday 2011 Issue.

I kicked myself into gear this week and finished a new short story called A Robot on Deck.

Phil of the Future - Gadgets & GizmosI watched a great move called Winter's Bone starring Jennifer Lawrence. I also bought a dvd called Phil of the Future: Gadgets & Gizmos. It was a short-lived Disney Channel series that aired a few years back. Despite having Vol. 1 written on the DVD covers this is the only DVD ever released of the series. There are four epsiodes on the DVD. Yes, this is a kids show, but the humor is aimed for all ages. Too bad the show didn't last long. 

The Iron Queen (Harlequin Teen)I'm currently reading Jane Goes Batty By Michael Thomas Ford. I'll post a review sometime next week. I bought the Iron Queen by Julie Kagawa last Saturday. I can't wait to start reading the series, but I don't know when I will get a chance to. I have several books to review right now.                                                                                                          
That Mama is a GrouchIn the mail this week:That Mama is a Grouch by Sherry Ellis. I'll post a review for it in March as part of the World of Ink Book Tour.
