Havisham's Cake A blog. My blog. My I-hardly-ever-post blog. But I thought I would include a link because, well, who knows? As I always inscribe in The Transmogrification of Roscoe Wizzle, "Life is change!" I may want to add a post occasionally. It begins with a two-part homage to Natalie Babbit and Tuck Everlasting, surely one of the most beautiful books ever written for a young person. I hope you'll read it. The book, I mean. And the blog, too. Why not? Anyway . . . havishamscake.blogspot.com/ Want to Write for Kids? Take a look at Lesley University's low residency Masters of Fine Arts in Creative Writing. If that's too big a committment, you might try Lesley's one-week summer intensive program. In the spirit of full disclosure, perhaps I should add that I teach in both (along with lots of other great writers.) Not that I'm saying I'm great, but . . . oh never mind. Just check these programs out.
