If enough of us clasp hands and agree that we don't have to believe the hatreds that we were taught, everything will be all right. Each person is responsible for at least that much. But if you have time, help someone else along. It's going to take all of us, focused and active, to clean up the mess we have helped make. I say let's start now....
HAPPY NEW YEAR to all the humans and everyone else on the planet.
I have written over 80 books for K-YA. Many are titles in my middle grade series: American Diaries, Survival, and Hoofbeats. The Unicorn's Secret and The Faeries' Promise series are for young readers. ((excerpts are up on http://www.kathleenduey.com)) Dark, atypical fantasy for teens and adults is my new love. My first YA novel,Skin Hunger, was a 2007 National Book Award finalist. Sacred Scars was released in 2009. The third book in the trilogy is finished and in the production process now.

Beautifully said. Wishing you a happy and peaceful new year.
Best wishes to you, Tricia...may the new year bring us all peace and trust.
I say we start ten years ago, but in the absence of time travel technology, now's the best we can do. And all we can do is the best we can do.
Peace out, y'all!
Hi, Peni. Or a thousand years ago. And yes, there is a book in this. Dibs. :0)
Oh, we can both dibs it. There isn't a chance in hell we'd write similar books. That's the advantage of being two different wildly original people.
True, of course. And fortunate. And I think I just wanted to say Dibs. It's been eons!!
TLA is in San Antonio this April. I hope to see you then?!
The only reason to miss it would be if I zoned out and didn't see it coming. I won't have a book to promote, alas, but on the other hand that leaves me free for any native guiding anyone needs.
wonderful words, Kathleen!
Happy New Year!
