Today was devoted to publishing "Granny Paints". Previous posts contain all the illustrations and various ideas on the story line.
I published two copies with illustrations. I have a new HP color print head and I am amazed to see that the colors are far more true than the Stapples' cheaper print head. The HP brand is well worth the extra money.
As I was printing I saw some inconsistencies that my proof reader daughter and grandchild missed. So I painted the family tree blanket more like a blanket. I polished verb tense and made the text more conversational. I changed wording that my ten year old granddaughter hesitated on as she read. I have high hopes of sending these books to family before Valentines Day. Time will tell. There were many interruptions and I was happy to go for a walk in the spring like weather. My husband and I sat for awhile viewing the wildlife from our back porch. There were two deer grazing in the woods. We saw a small woodpecker in the oak and the crazy blue birds came close enough to touch but we were not prepared with the camera. The picture here is a cropped one taken with a telephoto lens.

Hey Diane, Thanks for the generous comments on my blog. It sounds like you're going through some change over there. I look forward to see the effect it has on your beautiful work. I'll be looking for it.
