Sorry for taking so long to reply. I have been busy working on my new website and focused on various writing and speaking projects. I hope you are doing well and that things are looking up. It certainly is a different time in the children's book business. Industry "corrections" have impacted many wonderful professionals. Colleagues and friends have been reinventing themselves, seeking ways to use their skills, talents, and prior experiences in a variety of new venues. Needless to say you are not alone and competition is plentiful at all levels. It is probably a good idea to keep up a web presence especially on sites like JacketFlap, as well as have your own personal website where people can locate you and see what you have to offer. In addition, SCBWI, is a wonderful organization for networking and making connections. Feel free to send me your vitae and I'll pass it along when opportunities come up. In the meantime, keep in touch and let me know how things unfold.

Hey Peggy my name is Shelly Palmer and I recently wrote an extraordinary children's book. I heard that in order to get publishers to even look at your book you need to know an editor, so I was wondering if you would like to take a look at it. I'm local about 30 minutes North of Atlanta. Please let me know if you can help me. It's a wonderful book about the experiences of motherhood in a children's eye view. My email is [email protected]
