Today was/is Juliette Gordon Lowe's birthday. For those who haven't heard her name, shame on you. She is the founder of Girl Scouts of America. The organization is 100 years old today.
What does Girl Scouts have to do with writing or anything for that matter? A lot. Girl Scouts nuture young girls and allows them to explore so many different options for careers or whatever they want to do.
I also got my sticker this weekend that says "once a girl scout always a girl scout" for filling out a form when I bought some cookies. Love those thin mints.
Since it's cookie season, support your girl scouts, buy a box of cookies and nuture a young lady's future to become the future President or an Astronaut or even a world famous writer.
A place to find out about Elysabeth, her family, life and her writings. Somewhere to find about all her stories to include her short stories - "Train of Clues" (a mystery destination story, shared second place), "The Tulip Kiss" (first place), "The Proposal" (second place), "Bride-and-Seek", "Butterfly Halves" (runner up), "La Cave", "Zombies Amuck" (second place), and her novels Finally Home (a NaNoWriMo story), and Imogene: Innocense Lost.
