About Me
I grew up in Kansas, one of six children. After college, I pursued my library career in Ohio, Maryland, Australia and Texas. From children’s librarian to reference librarian to library director, I loved it. Now I’m enjoying retirement and having time to write and also pursue photography. I’ve started combining the two interests by self-publishing books on Blurb.com. Having lots of fun!

Interview request: Hi, I’m a freelance reporter working on an article about how parents can create a memorable holiday, even in tough times, with homemade Christmases. The article is for The Christian Science Monitor newspaper (csmonitor.com). I saw your write-up of how to recreate a Little House on the Prairie Christmas, thought it was a terrific idea, and hoped I could talk with you further. I can be contacted at the above e-mail. Thanks very much for your time.

I recently sold my dance business in Portland, OR and moved to Albuquerque, NM to be with be with my fiance’. Leaving my family and friends, I am truly starting over and am looking for some guidance in the online business with eHow and Amazon. I noticed you are are quite familiar with both.
May I share some thoughts, ideas, and questions with you regarding connecting with my national dance community through online sales on eHow and Amazon?
If you would, view my website at http://www.swingmeout.com.

Hi Virginia, Thanks for pointint me to your mom’s book. I will try to get that. Would be a nice addition to my research books on the Flint Hills. Hope the book signing in El Dorado went well! Blessings to you both.

Virginia,
I read your eHow article on selling antique diaries and was wondering something. Where would be the best place to FIND a victorian diary from maybe 1860-1899 that would be blank? I am creating a character for a Victorian Magic show and am building a life that can be shared through storytelling and photos and a diary.
However, I am having trouble finding a nice diary from that period that is blank and could be used to complete myself using sources from different sources.
Thanks for any help!!

Hi Virginia,
I am new to wordpress and just found your blog, looks like a good read to me so far!
It looks like you have some good information here, and have “pushed” out into the webs in different directions (lens,blurb,zazzle,etc).
