Introducing "Max, the Boy Raindrop"
Max is ready to meet the world! I'm so excited to let you know that my new book is available for purchase. Max lives in e-book and softcover printed-book formats so you may have whichever is your preference.
Max, the Boy Raindrop is an adventurous, fast-paced story about a scared raindrop who must overcome his fear of raining. He learns that oftentimes just grabbing hold of a friend's hand can be the beginning of courage.
For those friends of mine in the card-making and scrapbooking world, you will be pleased to know that I created all the illustrations myself using only cardstock and paper-crafting tools. A big thanks goes to Core'dinations ColorCore Cardstock, Darice, and Fiskars who so generously supplied cardstock and paper-crafting tools to help me tell Max's story. They will all have copies to give away on their blogs.
As time goes by, I will be sharing some specific techniques I used for Max's story like punching, dry-embossing, tearing, design, color choice and cutting the tiniest pieces of paper. Every eyebrow, every eyelash even, I created from cardstock.
Thanks so much for sharing in my excitement today! I will be looking forward to Max living in your home. Here is the info to order if you are interested. You may order an autographed copy directly from me. Email me at phaskin@hotmail.com for info.

Congratulations! I can't wait to see it and learn more about the illustrations. I absolutely love that you crafted them all yourself out of cardstock.
Oh, I want one of the first copies! A signed first edition! I am so excited! I just showed Sequoia the pic on FB! We are both excited! She has another year of preschool, but my goal is to teach her to read this summer. I think she can do it. Maybe "Max" will be one of her first accomplishments! I sent you an email! Hugz!!

Thanks for taking my survey and for your sweet comment! Most of my followers are email subscribers and they don't leave comments, so it always encourages us blog writers to have people say hello!
