And build a footbridge and shelter here:
We will have good materials for building.
A creative group of writer friends will be sharing some tips and their knowledge about Writing Middle Grade novels. Check them out if you’d like to learn more: they are using their collective skills to build something wonderful as they set up their blog tour.
