Wow!

Author E. J. Gore was visiting with some kids on the weekend and signing their copies of Taya Bayliss books.

While she was talking with them, Miss Marie drew and painted this portrait of me. I look very serious and determined, don't I?

Isn't it fantastic!   I love it!  

Thank you, Marie.  I am sticking on the wall of E. J's office so she is inspired to write more stories about me.

If you have any pictures of me or Chris or Minnie, send them to info@ejgore.net so we can share with everyone.


Bye.

Eeeeek!

A friend of mine has recently found a very, very large and long snake skin in her garden. it was longer than her husband is tall and was as wide as his fist. Yikes!


Now, today, she posted this picture.

If that wouldn't speed up your visit to the bathroom, I don't know what would.

Thank goodness Fifi doesn't do things like that.

What would you do if you saw a snake coming out of the bathroom light fitting?

Unusual Snake.

Hello,
As you  know, my new adventure 'Snake Charmer' is now available.

Go here to buy it.

As you also know, I am not a huge snake fan, but I wanted to show you this snake. It is really pretty to look at....if snakes can be pretty.

It is a San Francisco Garter Snake.  These snakes are designated as endangered and come in a variety of multicoloured patterns. Their preferred habitat is near creeks or marshy areas where they can catch frogs and other little water creatures.

Here's a link for you to follow if you would like to know more about these snakes.

I think they are very nice to look at but I won't be setting up any fan clubs for them. Snakes are not my favourite creatures.
I'll just stick to Minnie...she's my kind of pet.  (No offence, Fifi.)

See ya.

Girl Power

I found a really cool website for kids/teens, particularly girls.
It's all about empowering girls to realise their full potential.

They have some great shirts and jumpers there too.  Have a look at these.

I love them all, but my favourite is the hoodie.  They come in different colours so you can choose your favourite slogan in your favourite colour and style.

Go to www.amightygirl.com to see all the stuff they have there.  There's books, school equipment, clothing and toys.  You should definitely check it out.

Tell 'em Taya sent you.

Bye now.
