The Story House - Bookstore on Wheels

09/03/2024

I've been an editor at Behrman House for a little over a year and a half, which means that the first books that I edited are just beginning to come out. While I always look forward to the "book birthday" for books that I have written, it is also a feeling of accomplishment when a book that you've edited comes out. As an editor, I get to really know the author and also work with the illustrator. Today is the "book birthday" for a lovely book entitled Mr. Katz and Me by Marc Kornblatt and illustrated by Nanette Regan. Here's a video of Marc talking about his book:

I am making and selling jewelry in support of Ukraine relief efforts. All profits will be going to relief organizations. The designs are made using aluminum inserts that I sublimate print. The chains and pendants are silver-plated. Much of the artwork was purchased from Ukrainian artists. You can order on my website www.storyhouseonline.com, at my ETSY store https://www.etsy.com/shop/SimileandPun or in person at Dawson's Market (I'll be setting them up there in the next couple days).
