Darcy Pattison visited today. She is a local author of children's books, including the saga of Oliver K. Woodman. Now, I have no idea if Oliver is any relation to Dave Woodman, but the books are richly illustrated, beautiful to see, and fun to read. Darned! Kids get all the good stuff. The interview is in the free WAI Radio.com "on demand" archives. She has lots of insights on kid's books and writing in general. Darcy has an excellent website which might even be of interest to aspiring authors.
She was also promoting a local conference for the Arkansas Reading Association. Check that out too.
