A Local Mystery

Who has been adding these wonderful birdhouses and sculptures to our local stop signs?

The main reason I live in this tiny community is because I love seeing wild animals, especially right now, as the spring migrations begin and the red tailed hawks come through.

On my daily walks I see turkey vultures, a blue heron, turkeys, rabbits, quail, falcons, crows, and the odd coyote, but lately a strange new wildlife has been appearing on our stop signs.

So far, I’ve seen elaborate birdhouses, and sculptures of a quail mother and her fledglings, as well a flock of geese (hmm).

Just recently, Dr. Who’s Tardis appeared. Apparently we are now signaling that our community is welcoming the Doctor with open arms.

Whoever the mystery person is, they’re making my neighborhood a much happier, more whimsical place.

Thank you, mystery person!

Cover of The Third Kind of Magic with Russian title

I am thrilled  to announce that The Third Kind of Magic is now available from the largest Russian publisher of children’s books, EKSMO. The second Crow Magic book, The Cursed Amulet will be published in Russian soon! It was a long process, and I learned a lot about publishing (and auto-translation of emails) along the way.
