Welcome to my Web Site. I hope you enjoyed my 500 words of wisdom. It took a lot of years and tears…and yeah, some blood and sweat too! Wisdom doesn’t come easily does it?
Life has been and is being very good to me. The writing is pouring forth….and happiness and gratitude seem to have taken up permanent residency here!
I would love to hear from you……so leave a comment, won’t you?
Best regards to everyone!
Trish
Recently I took a long hard look at my own web site and realized that it was static, lifeless and tired. And I had loved it for so long! So began my journey for a web consultant that could bring me into real time with shopping cart, shipping, animation, and far better communication with my readers!
I began by asking an old friend in the computer software industry for a referral….and found Leon. What a treasure. He’s clever, funny and patient! As an added bonus he has a degree in theatre from NYU, so he really gets me. While my site isn’t completely finished, while Leon continues to build and polish it I am able to come on line and ‘play in my cyber sand box’!
The new software is friendly and easy to learn. I think it really shows off my books and scripts with beautiful illustrations (a nod to my wonderful team of illustrators) and is easy to navigate. I hope my readers and theatre family enjoy it as much as I do!
The third in the Fabled Forest Series, these children’s chapter books delight kids from ages 2–11. Read on…….
Bertie, the bookworm is the fabled forest’s elder and teacher. Every week he has a spelling and reading circle where everyone is welcomed. Slam, the badger and his gang of bully boys are forever teasing, disrupting, and bullying Bertie and the group of faeries and woodland creatures. Pansy, the pixie is a new character in this third of the Fabled Forest series. She is a defender of reading, truth, and Bertie. Cheets, our beloved elf from past books joins the wrong crowd and his friends are worried that he will become the newest member of the Bully Boys.
The story teaches gentle lessons about literacy, bullying and ageism.
The book pays special homage to the classical fairy tales with appearances by little red riding hood, the wicked stepsister, the three little piggies and many more as they wander through the Fabled Forest. Variations of these classic stories, such as Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Snow White, and many others, have been recorded throughout the world since the first century. The French tale of Cendrillon [Cinderella] was written in France in 1697 by Charles Perrault. Later in the eighteenth century the Brothers Grimm in Germany adapted the tale again. During his life time the master animator, Walt Disney [1901–1966] adapted the ancient fables to film.
