QUERY NEWS, BOOK DEALS, AND KILLER SHOES

By
Dear Alison,

Wow! Tuesday was an AMAZING day and the way you announced the big news to the world--BRILLIANT.  It's one of our most popular posts of all time and with good reason--Carrie and you are a match made in heaven...








And I am sooooooo happy for you. I haven't stopped happy dancing since the first phone call...




I can't wait for the world to read your stories, because you are a master storyteller, an absolute Master...


Alison and Carrie, I look forward to an amazing future filled with incredible books, delicious cheesesteaks, and killer shoes...

So it's Friday, and way back in 2016 we posted every Monday and Thursday, but life got away from us. Mainly for bookish reasons but don't worry. InkSisters will be participating in the April #AtoZChallenge again. In a few weeks, the A to Z Masters will reveal the badge and the contest theme. We already know our theme, don't we Alison? It'll take a considerable amount of character not to reveal the theme but our readers will just need to be patient...


If you're a blogger and interested in signing up for the #AtoZChallenge, here's the link: A to Z Challenge

We will also be participating in the New Adult Scavenger Hunt or #NEWash once again. If you would like to sign up to participate as an author, signups are open but they won't be for long. Click here: New Adult Scavenger Hunt

Beloved Readers, Alison and I won't leave you hanging for much longer. 


Oh one more little thing, actually one more GIANT thing, Valentine Kisses: A Kiss to Last a Lifetime Ebook is only $.99!!! The deal only lasts for the month of February so hurry and pick up your copy. 

Avalanche, Kim Briggs

Avalanche, my sweet romance with a side of steamy novella, is part of the collection. Here's the tagline and blurb: 


Lexi finds herself in the middle of a longtime feud, and her heart might not be the only thing at stake.

Lexi returns to her first love, Wolf Creek Ski Resort, with ambitions of becoming a ski instructor. She soon finds herself in the middle of a longtime feud between Gabe, a snow groomer who gives off the broken vibe Lexi finds irresistible, and Harrison the fourth, playboy son of Wolf Creek’s owner who always wants what Gabe has. Tensions boil at Wolf Creek, and Lexi’s heart might not be the only thing at stake.


So, treat yourself to Valentine Kisses: A Kiss to Last a Lifetime this weekend. Curl up by the fire this and read!!



Sharing the writing love one letter at a time,
Kim

FIRST SNOW by Bomi Park: Classroom Activity and Review

By Alison Green Myers
Dear Kim, Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow! We had fun with Bomi Park's gorgeous FIRST SNOW last week. We used the book as a mentor text to explore personal narratives and poetry.  We also explored watercolor resist techniques. (We also made a mess-- which is kind of my modus operandi during writing workshop. Sorry, Kelley! ) I used the sentence starter from the jacket copy: Look up. One flake falls, then another. And just like that—it's __ __ __ __ __ __ __ . The kids worked cooperatively at their table groups to discuss what word might fill in the blank. I love hearing them chat.  "Well it is a snowflake because 'one flake'."  Followed by: "No. It has seven letters, snowflake has nine."  And: "It is an action. A-- what's that called-- a verb because it is something falling."  Eventually we filled in the blank by using spelling clues to check our thinking, which might not sound like a whole lot of fun, but spell...
