First Review of The Robot Scientist’s Daughter! And a Poetry on Buses Poem…

Thanks to Allyson Whipple for the first (early) review of The Robot Scientist’s Daughter! So excited! Here it is: http://allysonmwhipple.com/2015/02/09/review-the-robot-scientists-daughter-by-jeannine-hall-gailey/

An excerpt:  “The Robot Scientist’s Daughter brings us a beautiful, magical place with a horror story lying beneath. It will break your heart, and it will make you think.”

I am always grateful when thoughtful, intelligent reviewers give my books a little of their time and attention. It’s hard work to write a good review!

I was also happy to discover (a day or so late) my poem up on the Seattle Poetry on Buses web site. This poem was inspired by Redmond:

Spring is coming, I feel, even though it is still early February. Yesterday I heard a frog singing in the woods, and the birds have been way more active than usual. My daffodils are pushing up. I also saw a mockingbird, which are fairly uncommon here (though very common where I grew up in Tennessee, so I always recognize them right away.) I think we could use a little spring.
