Mo' Peeps a Poppin' plus Beedle the Bard
Er, after our last holiday post where marshmallow Peeps were decimated, Son and I decided that this entry should be a wee bit more cheerful.

So, in the spirit of every-holiday-past, we mustered up all the old marshmallow Peeps we could find in the house, including a Valentine heart from David Lubar's lovely wife . . .

We thought our creation would look fantabulous once nuked in the microwave . . .

But alas! It toppled . . .

Oh well. Next time we'll consult a bevy of structural engineers.

Christmas-gifting-wise, Peepy was overwhelmed by goodies . . .

The rest of the family got lots fun things and books, including "The Tales of Beedle the Bard" by JK Rowling. Puppy tends to gnaw on books, so she got toys instead . . .

As is her way, she destroyed her carrot toy, then denied it . . .

But the evidence was as clear as the fuzz on her face . . .

Writing-wise, I'm currently working on a new novel, plus an essay for an upcoming SCBWI Bulletin. I'm not going to say what the topic of the essay is. However . . .

And finally, here's a PotterCast video of my editor Arthur Levine. He's unveiling his very own handmade copy of "The Tales of Beedle the Bard" given to him by JK Rowling . . .

Looks like a wonderfully messy holiday. :>)

Have you read HARRY, A HISTORY by the Leaky Cauldron's Melissa Anelli? She mentions Arthur, Cheryl, and even Livejournal.

Ooh, yes! I did read HARRY, A HISTORY. Wasn't if fun reading about how the books came about?

Yeah, I thought it was really interesting (especially JKR's handwritten little query letter with no plot information!). The shipping wars, fanfiction, etc., were just a bit too weird, though. :>)

Okay, I knew I was having a slow day, but this just proved it. It took me three times of looking through the post for something about Mo Willems, before I realized that WASN'T what your blog title was talking about!

Ah, but perhaps there is a subliminal Mo message imbedded in there somewhere. Look again! Or not.
