It's the Year of the Snake! Unlike human "snakes" who are slimy, untrustworthy, and currently in the US government (that shaking beneath our feet is the Constitution writers collectively rolling over in their graves), real snakes are helpful, gentle (yes, ask how many run-ins we have had with even the venomous ones and have never been harmed), and will never try to con you. Oh, have I digressed? Sorry. ![]() While the Lunar New Year is extremely important to Chinese people, there is another holiday that is possibly as ancient and significant to us. This holiday is Ching Ming (in Cantonese; Qing Ming in Mandarin). It means so much to me that I wrote a picture book about it. I was going to talk more about Ching Ming in this blog post but, surprise, I ran out of time and I'm currently frantically getting ready to go to the SCBWI Winter Conference, so the blog post will have to wait. In the meantime, if you're also stressing over current events like many of us sane folks are, head to Beth Stillborn's blog to see on what books authors (including me) turn to when they are anxious.
