As a freelance writer for various magazines including Highlights For Children, I’ve always had an interest in writing novels. Not long after attending a Whole Novel Workshop moderated by Helen Hemphill (one of three Highlights Foundations conferences I’ve been lucky to attend over the years) I sold the middle grade novel I worked on there. The wheels of publishing do turn slowly but I’m happy that The Search for the Homestead Treasure has just been released from the University of Minnesota Press!
