In my world it is forever the Long Winter and I am still twisting the proverbial haysticks needed to burn through to the end of this blasted book, this bloody blanged bucking book! BUT. I am now an occasional contributor to the Beyond Little House blog, where I have written about Miss Virginia Kirkus and have recapped two of my favorite Long Winter chapters, so you can stop by my little shanty over on that virtual homestead and say hello if you wish.
AND. I will be introducing the enchanting Jami Attenberg, reading from her book The Melting Season (read about it!) at the Book Cellar in Lincoln Square this Thursday night at 7:00. And I know this is just a hurried blog post but it all kind of fits together, doesn’t it? Winter and burning and melting and haysticks and book covers with wheat on them. THERE IS A THEME TO EVERYTHING. That is how my mind goes these days.
See you in the spring!
IF we miss you?
IF?????

Hi Wendy! I am rereading “I’m Not The New Me” and I don’t know why I never visited your site before. I am fat and work in publishing and also voted for Obama. Therefore, you rock. Have a lovely day.
Oh, yeah, I adored “The Long Winter” too – have reread it many times! But my favorite of the series is the one right after that – “These Happy Golden Years” – where Nellie Oleson really, er, came into her own.;-) Hope you’re having a great time!
Hi Wendy,
I just wrote you at work. Then goggled you.

The Little HOuse Books—I LOVE!!! I’m so jealous of your adventures in the midwest. I want to visit these sites before I die. AND I love your working title.
