I would consider you a natural; good with kids; great with presentations (very animated) and a great writer. I am sure God would be very pleased with his girl. Well done and congratulations on your next book. I am sure we will see many from Penny Reeve. My kids loved theirs.<br /><br />Blessings,<br />KayleenKayleen West - Children Author/Illustratorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18102357041523253163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2208627029605402728.post-56084647770427248342013-06-11T21:16:18.781+10:002013-06-11T21:16:18.781+10:00Thanks for sharing your interesting journey Penny....Thanks for sharing your interesting journey Penny. I love drawing, my audience are the children I teach Scripture to and they always tell me I am a good drawer.....which I love!(usually 9 year olds)<br /><br />I am also a little worried about when I get to heaven, maybe the blind guy from chapter 9 of John won't think how I imagined him to look, complete with sunglasses, did him justice! Oh well no pain in heaven, so I guess I don't really have to worry!<br /><br />A special moment for you to find illustrators see your characters how you see them, good story telling for sure!<br /><br />Looking forward to hearing more of your journey...<br />DiDi Rileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01288915294738813579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2208627029605402728.post-656584717509622802013-06-09T20:03:45.327+10:002013-06-09T20:03:45.327+10:00Yes - I think you're probably right, Adam.

It occurs to me that you have something in common with TV/Film writers, who create a character and then hand them over to an actor to finish the creation.Adam David Collingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18072000680990534407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2208627029605402728.post-38806636100492660722013-06-07T20:29:14.940+10:002013-06-07T20:29:14.940+10:00That would be lovely, wouldn't it!

These days, snail mail rarely brings anything good but just costs us money (because we know they bring mostly bills etc).<br />BTW, I also loved the Tania Abbey illustrations.<br />Great books and hope all goes well with Wonderfully Madison.Paula Vincehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02079952414990463270noreply@blogger.com
