I am a teacher, now doing part-time subbing, but need to get a full time job with benefits. I would love to do just writing and book talks in schools, libraries, but that seems like a dream.

Hi Tracy,
I've not had success getting my book published and am now considering Halo Publishing, a self publishing place. Have you had any experience with them or have you heard any feedback? I'd be interested to know before I take the plunge.
Cheers,
Stacia

Hi, Tracy,
This comment is to ask if you'll be at the CHA event in Anaheim later this month. Probably not, I know, but it's so close to LA and book people will be there. I'LL even be there, and I'm from the wilds of Dakotaland!
