Jamie Lee Curtis

There has always been something about Jamie Lee Curtis that I like. I've never been able to really pinpoint, but I have always thought she was a beautiful lady who is aging very gracefully.

Today I was flipping through my Guidepost (courtesy of my good friend Donna) and I saw her featured in the book as an actress and children's book author. Well imagine my surprise. I immediately googled her to find her website and figured I would come back and share a bit.

If her books are as good as her acting, I am sure they are a must have. I am now looking for ways to connect with Ms. Curtis and discuss our common passion for writing children's books. I can hardly wait!

Capital Bookfest 2008



So many new and exciting things have been happening for us and we are bracing ourselves for more to come. We officially launched our company website this week thanks to the wonderful work of our web site designer Toni Tates. We attended the Capital Bookfest 2008 on Capital Blvd in Largo, Md today. We were both up at the crack of dawn to make there in time for our 10AM and did not pack up until 6:45pm. The event ended at 7pm. We sold books, networked and Polly read our picture book in the Children's Corner inside Borders Book Store. It was AWESOME!!!

As if that was not enough, we saw reality TV star, Omarosa and Nikki Giovanni was there reading excerpts from her book and doing a book signing (see photos below). This was truly a once in a lifetime opportunity to even be in the same room as this profound poet and writer.














14 hours later, we are tired but its all worth it. Working for ourselves never felt so good. And if that was enough, we are at it again at the Sterling Festival 2008. We can hardly wait.
