I've been crazy busy this week with writing and editing two of my short stories for a contest and an upcoming anthology. Both of those short stories are very different from what I usually write. I'm geeked to release them to the public, but it's not time yet. When I finally get the chance to share them with you, I'll post links here. Patience, grasshoppa!
In the meantime, pop on over to my friend (and MOSAIC co-author) Step Gonzaga's blog. Stef asked me some in-depth questions about my creative journey and my advice for budding creatives. Even if you know me well, I bet you'll learn something new. http://stefgonzaga.com/creative-stories-s-j-henderson-writer-author/ Make sure you say hi to Stef--and me, of course. It's been lonely here! Sniff sniff!  To celebrate Amazon's Prime Day, I'm offering the second book in my Middle Grade series for free--for the first time ever! Snatch up a copy for you, the kids in your lives, or your favorite elementary school teacher. And, please, share this post!
The link to DANIEL THE CAMP-ER: www.bit.ly/CAMPDANIEL The link to the both books in the series: www.bit.ly/DTDseries Thanks so much, friends! Yup. If you haven't already figured it out from the title, today we're talking about spider squishing. As I promised yesterday, I'm going to share a little bit from my new book, DANIEL THE CAMP-ER. You won't see this excerpt shared anywhere else, guaranteed, because I know what excerpts everyone else has. Muahaha! In this part of the story, our hero, Daniel, has located his camp counselor, Marq-with-a-Q, and is trying to convince him to help with an eight-legged problem. Enjoy! The Spider Menace, a.k.a Great-Great-Great Grandpa Milton I clear my throat and blurt, “Could you please come back to the cabin with me? The spider needs to be stopped before it can crawl up somebody’s nose and . . . You just need to squish it!” Marq-with-a-Q’s eyes grow big. “No, no, no! Why would I do that?” “Because it’s a blood-sucking spider.” Duh. “I’m sorry, Daniel, but I can’t be involved in the killing of a species on the brink of extinction.” I blink. “Huh?” “You haven’t heard about that? It’s huge, huge news,” he says. “I’m not surprised you haven’t learned about this in school. They don’t want you to know that, at this rate, spiders will be extinct by the year 2025.” I sigh and tap my foot. “Yeah, well, could they at least hurry that up a little bit? I’d take extinction over a spider making himself at home in my brain while I’m sleeping.” Marq-with-a-Q makes an unhappy tut-tut noise. “Daniel, Daniel, Daniel. Think about what you’re saying. If we didn’t have spiders, our entire ecosystem would be thrown out of whack.” “Who’s killing spiders?” Rain Stevens pops out of nowhere and touches my elbow with his cold hand. I scream, shrill and loud. “Girls, quiet down!” Camp Director Corto calls out without even looking up from his packet of veggies roasting over the flames. “Don’t do that,” I gasp, but I’m not sure anyone can hear me over the pounding of my heart. “My great-great-great grandfather Milton came back as a spider. A wolf spider.” Rain’s lower lip wobbles. “Please don’t kill spiders.” “Well, your great-great-great grandfather Milton is creepy,” I say. I don’t even know what Rain’s talking about, but I don’t plan to find out. And don't forget to enter my giveaway (for US residents only)!
I feel like I'm always apologizing for not keeping you guys up on my news. This time, I don't have a very good excuse. Well, unless you count publishing a book as a good excuse. You might. I do, but I don't really count. In a perfect world I would've created more buzz: giveaways, countdowns, cover reveals, and all that jazz. Shoulda, woulda, coulda... Time just got away from me, and my sanity put limits on how much promo I could manage on my own (hey, wanna be my publicist? #kiddingnotkidding). With or without the proper amount of fanfare, this day has come anyway.  Yes, you read that right. The second book in the DANIEL THE DRAW-ER series is now available for purchase on Amazon. Whether you're a fan of ebooks or the real deal, I've got you covered. Click on the book cover below or the appropriate links to pick up your very own copy of this supremely goofy book. Or, if you prefer, visit my bookstore to order an autographed paperback. And if you live in the U.S., don't forget to enter the giveaway at the bottom of the page. You could win one of several prizes, including an Amazon gift card or copies of my books! Without further ado... Daniel the Camp-er There are a few simple rules Daniel follows. Rule One: never let an adult see your weakness. Daniel made that mistake and look where he ended up—summer camp. Rule Two: never make fun of the person who feeds you, unless you like Miss Gunderson’s peppery pancakes and green hamburgers. Rule Three: stay away from girls who love Glitter Ponies. They have cooties, after all. And Rule Four: never, ever lose your magic pencil. But Daniel has broken all of his own rules. Now he’s stuck and starving at Camp Bigfoot with the school bully as his bunkmate and an ooey-gooey girl who won’t leave him alone. If all of that wasn’t bad enough, his prized possession, a pencil that brings his drawings to life, has gone missing and wacky creatures are popping up all over camp. Can Daniel survive Camp Bigfoot and find his magic pencil before it’s too late? In my next blog post, I'll share an exclusive excerpt in my next blog post on DANIEL THE CAMP-ER. Stay tuned!
