Finally, some exciting stuff!


*Prime Time* featured my article “To Dance with a Dog” on its cover. The article is about Gina Lyn Hayes, the 50 year-old owner of Just Dogs Training Center, and her dog-owner dancing classes. Here is a link to the article and excerpts:

Also, I’m happy to report San Min Book Company accepted my second children’s book, in addition to the spider story. This one involves a female monkey torn from her jungle home to discover she has a new purpose helping a new family member. If another couple of my stories are accepted, we’ll have a book series – so the publishing can then begin!


And once in awhile, one is struck by one’s child’s beauty (like every time I look at her). Here’s a recent photograph taken by my mom:

(My poor girl was sick with fever!)


On the looks subject, when I was a teen, I was too thin and shy. Strangely, a modeling agency was interested. Now, at thirty-four, for the sheer heck of it, I submitted my terribly amateur portfolio to OneModelPlace.com. Of subsequent offers, one was from Kenneth Hari, a painter and sculpture-artist represented in permanent collections of over 390 museums throughout world, including the Vatican, Grand Ole Opry House, Xiaoyi Liu collection and Museum Kenneth Hari, Hari has painted actresses, actors, artists and writers including actresses Greta Garbo and Lauren Bacall, actor Dustin Hoffman, artist Salvador Dali and writer W.H. Auden. His work is quite accurate. http://www.hari.com/about.htm will take you to his website. I have given him my cell-phone number -- so we may learn the details of the "project" he is "interested" in me for??


Here is the first outcome of the ones I accepted (to round out the personality):


http://www.authorsden.com/visit/viewnews.asp?AuthorID=2092 will take you to a painting by the eclectic “Pedj" whom I submitted photos to. Coincidentally, the painting is his representation of me in a white hippie dress he saw on e-bay entitled “Sara!”


More stuff to report in the near future ;)


Lots of Love,
Sara
