Fairyland "stirs and troubles him (to his lifelong enrichment) with the dim sense of something beyond his reach and, far from dulling or emptying the actual world, gives it a new dimension of depth. He does not despise real woods because he has read of enchanted woods: the reading makes all woods a little enchanted" (C.S. Lewis, "On Three Ways of Writing for Children").

Good News!

I am happy to share the wonderful news that my middle-grade novel, A Sketch in Time, will be published in Catalan in May 2012 by Cruilla, a wonderful children's publisher in Barcelona.

I am grateful for the support of my family (whose voices and experiences helped shape the novel), my friends (many of whom read early versions of the novel and offered valuable feedback), Nuria (who requires far more thanks than I can put here in parentheses), my team of agents, and the city of Barcelona for inspiration.

I'll write more about the process and the particulars when I feel less giddy, if I ever do!
