Busy, busy storytelling times here at the end of the school year! Two days in Fayetteville, six days in Jessieville, one day in Conway, and two days in Hot Springs. Now to rest up and get ready for lots of summer library programs.

9 performances at 7 venues in 2 days was challenging but happy-making work!

Spring brings bluebells and butterflies to my little corner.

For the first time ever, I tried to advertise my storytelling with physical media - good old-fashioned postcards! It was fun to draw, and I like how they turned out. I sent them to several public libraries, in hopes of hearing back from at least one person !

Had a great time telling slightly spooky and silly tales to this crew at their after-school event. Thank you to fellow librarian Carmen Freeman for inviting me (and for the photo!)

I love telling the stories with rock-skipping characters. Maybe I ought to work that into more of my rep.

Enjoying reading all the versions of The Boyhood Deeds of Finn that I can find in my local library. If only I could speak the way James Stephens wrote! Also, Marie Heaney is delightful writer.

Helped out just briefly, the day before opening, mainly served as a counterweight on the ladder. I like behind-the-scenes photography.
