Want to hear a preview of me reading the first pages of BRAINSTORM! and also hear more about the story behind the story? Check out my interview on the amazing Picturebooking Podcast with Nick Patton !

Nick is an amazing interviewer and asked some great questions. I had a chance to share not only the inspiration for BRAINSTORM! but also some behind-the-scenes tidbits about the publishing process. I even had the opportunity to share secret tactics I use when brainstorming and writing my own poems and picture books. (O.k., they’re not really “secret” but I have to entice you somehow!). I hope you enjoy listening!
