Big Decisions


Right now I find myself doing a lot of journal work as I have had some rather big decisions presented to me lately! A few opportunities have opened up, and they are very exciting and would be rather large turning points in my life! However, to pursue these opportunities I would have to sacrifice a few things and take some risks. I can't announce anything quite yet for various reasons, but I promise as soon as I can and have made my decision I will make a special blog with all the details. I leave for Florida in 7.5 days and will return around the 20th, I should know by then!



In other news, I am very excited to be going to Florida in 7.5 days! I can't stop thinking about everything that we are going to be doing! Disney World, MegaCon, and so much more! Yet the best part is getting to see the people I care about... and getting out of Emporia, Kansas! I'm always in the mood for an adventure!

Until next time...

Creatively Yours,
Kat Callaway

"Lily the Ladybug Loves to Shop" to be Printed!



"Lily the Ladybug Loves to Shop" will be printed in hardback by the end of April! I am very excited for this! Granted, the book will not be available for purchase in stores, but copies can be purchased though me! (Just e-mail me for more details). I will eventually post prices here as we get closer to the date it is released.

This is a small project funded through an ESU class and so while the book will be "published" through a small press, it will not be officially published in the writing world. Therefore, the manuscript (along with other books in the series) are still available to interested agents/publishers! This just means I will have a nice hardback copy for my portfolio! Which, also excites me!

Lily the Ladybug was the first character I every really worked with when I decided I wanted to make Children's Book writing my career. We have come a long way, and it is exciting to be able to experience this!
