It’s not everyday that I get to boost a fellow #kidlit writer who also happens to be my friend and CP!
Happy Book Birthday!!
A COSTUME FOR CHARLY
by CK Malone
FRIDAY MINDS – That’s our critique group. We are CK, Maria Claudia, Nat, Randi, Rathi, and me. We meet every other Friday to do oral critiques on one another’s work. We asked CK to share a bit about CHARLY’s journey to publication. And as good friends will, we talked and talked. Below you’ll find a clip of part of that conversation. I’ll share more of them in the coming weeks.
Meantime, listen in as CK speaks about their experience as an #ownvoices writer.

Patricia Franz writes picture books and poetry. She believes children, dogs, and sourdough have a lot to teach us about life, joy, and wonder. She has raised two boys, four dogs, and holds a master’s degree in Theology with a focus on children’s spirituality. Patricia, her husband, her Bernese Mountain dog, Bonny, and her sourdough starter split their time between the Arizona desert and the Sierra Nevada mountains. 
So impressed with your tech skills, Patricia! Loved the clip. Congratulations, CK!
Thanks, Rose. Would not have been able to do it without the Canva Anthology lessons.
Congratulations on your debut, CK! I enjoyed listening to this clip and I can’t wait to read your book!
Thanks for listening, Becky! More to come each week!
I wasn’t so terrified because I had my CPs with me!
