Podcast #11

My latest podcast is out. Just click the link. Or visit good 'ol iTunes. The podcast is all about how songs from World War One inspired the writing of my novel Megiddo's Shadow. The book won't be out until this fall, but (of course) I'm excited about it now. It's set in Palestine and inspired by my grandfather's experiences in World War One. If you want to see the book covers and learn more please drop by my home page.

Here's the Canadian cover

And the American cover

All Sleek and Skimming is out!!!!

A very cool anthology of short stories for YA is out. It's called "All Sleek and Skimming" and features stories by Martha Brooks, Tim Wynne-Jones, Brian Doyle and others (including an excerpt from my book TRIBES). And the coolest part of the book is it has comics in it too. Prose and comics! Together in the same book!!!!

Anyway, it's all edited by Lisa Heggum, librarian extra-ordinaire.

Check it out,
