Exciting developments!
Hello everyone!
I have just returned from two weeks at the Anat Baniel Method Center in San Rafael, California — a therapy trip we could afford due to your generous contributions! Malachi made fabulous progress, including rolling onto his tummy and CRAWLING!! You can hear much more about this as well as watch a video at my blog OutrageousFortune.net. And hey, while you're there, become a subscriber to keep up-to-date on Malachi's progress. You helped make it happen!
Secondly, I want to report that DarkandLightBooks.com is now up and running! This exciting development is due to an unsolicited donation of time and services by All Media Bainbridge who helped design and operate the website.
Thirdly, Dark & Light now has a Facebook page! Feel free to "like" it by following this link:
https://www.facebook.com/DarkandLightBooks
But I've saved the best for last!! Look what came in the mail!! The proof copy is here! And it's beautiful! (Even my son JJ agrees! He found it this evening and brought it to me to read!)
After a few minor modifications, the final version has been sent to the printer and as soon as Tuesday the final order will be placed! We still look to be on track for an October delivery, so keep your fingers crossed for me!
Thanks for your continued interest and support!

Wow. OK, you can have the ORIGINAL storyboard that I created when I first thought of this book. It's not fancy, but imagine how much Margaret Wise Brown's notes for Goodnight Moon would be worth today? Plus all the above swag.

Not impressed with the storyboard? OK, name your reward. Want me to write, design and print a simple board book about your family? Done. Want me to show you start to finish how I created my masterpiece? Sure. Want me to teach my kids that your name is actually the word for a common household item? Why not. Want me to be your slave for a day? Well... umm... probably not. But let's talk!
Estimated delivery: Aug 2012
