]]> I am so excited and honored to find that libraries across the nation are picking up 7th Grade Revolution both in print and ebook format. My publisher let me know they had checked WorldCat.org to see which libraries had picked it up so far and the below libraries have. So if you happen to be in the area, stop by and check it out. And if you live in an area that doesn’t have a copy, stop by your local library and ask them to get it for you. 🙂

And because I like cool gadgets, I created a Library Watch List interactive Google map for 7th Grade Revolution and will periodically update it with the new locations. So if you go to the map you can zoom in and get the address of the specific library and through Google maps, get directions as well.

A big THANK YOU to all of the libraries for sharing 7th Grade Revolution in your area.

]]> One common theme that runs through the stories I write is that of bullying. Every story idea comes equipped with a bully and I think the reason is that bullying happens every day. I’ve never understood the mentality of a bully…why do they see the need to tear down others?

Well, one thing I’m going to start doing is finding information on bullying and some of the other issues my characters face and make this a place for information and resources on those topics. I did that with my blogfest post, Tory’s Day, highlighting child molestation and think it is a good idea. So to kick things off, I’d like to share a video I found through my friend, Paul Joseph and while he is not the author of the below video, he sets the example on finding resources and information to share on bullying. And while this is not exclusively about bullying, it is about letting you know… it does get better.

It Gets Better
