Slaying Your Inner Naysayer - Starting 2020 Off on Positive Note


In my continued journey of slaying my inner naysayer, I'm starting off 2020 on a positive note in several ways...

Continuing a healthy self-care lifestyle through journaling, meditation, massage and Reiki therapy, eating healthy and staying hydrated.

Dusting off several shelved works-in-progress and will be attending several Society of Children's Book Writer's and Illustrators (SCBWI) area events and workshops...


SCBWI Agents Panel at Manhattanville College - hosted by the Westchester NY SCBWI Chapter on Saturday, January 11, 2020 at Thank you to Gina and Kimberly for coordinating!  

SCBWI Shoptalk, Q&A & Critique session - hosted by the Eastern Upstate SCBWI Chapter on Thursday, January 16, 2020 at 6:30-89:30 pm at the New City Library, New City, NY. Thank you Kerry for coordinating! 

I'd enjoyed hearing about how you are setting the tone for a fabulous 2020!

Looking forward to a year of manifestations through healthy living and positive efforts filled with gratitude!
