Back in 2019, I created a blog entry for The Writing Life series, entitled, The Blog Tour Part of the Writing Life, which I've kept updated with links to various interviews and guest posts that I've participated in on other authors' websites, newsletters, and blogs.
With a new book coming out in October, I've returned more actively to the blog tour scene, and I thought it would be worthwhile to refresh this post with a new landing page. As of this writing, I have TEN blog appearances in the pipeline (both interviews and guest posts) and several scheduled podcast appearances—a new adventure for me. I hope you'll follow along!
You can still access all of the older posts on the original landing page if you're interested in tracing my full history as an author (or have a specific interest in my potty humor books, sign language books, Lucy's Blooms, or my original path to publication), but in case you're most interested in more current news, the links in this post will give you the full story-behind-the-story on my latest publications, including, Mama's Home (and Baby Too!), the 95-word story that took over 20 years to become a book!
As with the earlier summary post, I'll keep this page updated as new guest posts and interviews are added.
The first one has already landed here:
9/8/26: Mary Boone's 6 Questions (where I share the best piece of advice a mentor has given to me)
More Coming Soon!

10/19/26: Becky Walker Books' Take 5 (where I share five fun/quirky facts about my childhood self)
10/19/26: A Storied World (where I share ways in which I've seen the publishing industry change over the past 20 years)

Nov Date TBD: Pat Brown Books (where I share one piece of advice for writers just starting out)
Nov/Dec Date TBD: 24 Carrot Writing (I'm working on this post as we speak, so I don't have a preview quite yet!)
But wait. There's more!
As mentioned above, I'm also participating in some podcast interviews and other video-based chats. The recording dates have been scheduled for most of these, but the live dates aren't locked in quite yet. Stay tuned for details!
