Welcome friends to The Wonderous Makers, supported by Believe In Wonder Publishing! This group is our place to promote creativity in all its forms! You are invited to come and share your creative experiences, and find as many opportunities as possible to encourage those who may be struggling to find their inspiration. The world we're living in now needs your light, your ideas, and your stories. We are a community of makers, and we support each other and lift each other up. When our creative fire starts to ebb, we share our light with one another. So share the group with other creatives, crafters, musicians, and anyone who needs inspiration. Together we will shine bright, be brilliant, and believe in wonder. Happy New Year!

Our new segment on KATU is up, and I couldn't be prouder of our family and Believe In Wonder Publishing! Thank you Wesleigh Ogle KATU for coming out and spending the morning with us! #BelieveInWonder I had a great time at the Willamette Writers Conference 2024! So many great conversations had with authors from all walks of life. Thank you to the organization for having me out this year, and thank you to all the visitors who came to my class and the panels I was on. I feel very privileged to do this work and to know the people and friends in this community. #believeinwonder #AuthorLife
I present the cover design for The Magic We Miss, An Anthology of the Magic Around Us! The idea has lived rent-free in my head for over two years. It's super satisfying to get it out into the world. I even went and did some reference photos at Beaverton Transit Center. A really nice guy on his way to the airport helped me with some of the shots. Josie and I can't wait to share this book, filled with incredible tales of magic around us, each lovingly created by from our fellow Oregon storytellers. Coming Fall 2024 from Believe In Wonder Publishing! #BelieveInWonder
Josie and I had a great time at the Bridge Builders Breakfast hosted by Bridge Meadows and sponsored Bank of America, MeyerPro, and PNC Bank. It's wonderful to get a chance to speak about our experiences storytellers and as foster parents! We also got the chance to meet Jenny Abeling and Mary Matthews, the creators of A Kids Book About Long-term Care! We got to share the stage with amazing people, and we had amazing conversations throughout. A big thanks to all the attendees for your kind words and for supporting the work we do. #BelieveInWonder
WOW! What a busy few weeks! I had a great time at the Oregon Library Association event! Got a chance to rub elbows with some awesome librarians and some fellow creators, which is always a joy . Thank you everybody that stopped by, asked about the work, or just shared a story. They were all great moments! I got blocked in the hard working Salem Fire Department, but it's all good (thank you for your service) and even had two Ooligan Publishing students come by. They were part of the class that edited Nicholas Book 2! They were both so gracious and excited to see the book out in the world. Such a joy!
We followed this event up with a great tabling opportunity at the illustrious Powells Bookstore in Beaverton, OR! We got to meet families, talk about storytelling, and share creative joy! It was a real honor to be in such an inspiring space. #authorlife #BelieveInWonder |
