Governor Wolf Elementary 2006



Nazareth Library 2006



Looking for an author to speak at Conferences, Teacher Workshops, Young Author Fairs and School Visits. I discuss writing, editing and publishing my books. I also discuss strategies on how to teach creative writing.

Through an interactive, multimedia PowerPoint presentation, which includes photos and behind the scenes information about where my stories come from and how they go from ideas to books, my presentations are informative and fun.

Please write or e-mail me for more information and details about a presentation at your school, conference or function.

Release Date Information

Photos from THE CROSS OVER

The Whitefield House. One of the 1st structures built by Moravian settlers in Nazareth. Erected in 1740, it was used as a school for Native American and negro girls. It is the home of Beata and Sarah from The Cross Over. It is now a museum for Moravian and Northampton County Heritage. For more information of the Whitefield House, The Indian Tower , or the history of the Moravian settlement, log onto:

www.moravianhistoricalsociety.org

The Indian Tower. The method of time travel for Will, Charlie, Zach and Jillian in The Cross Over. Do you see a GHOST? The faint white image on the right of the Tower was NOT there when I took this photograph. It doesn't appear in ANY of the other photos I took of the TOWER. Could it be the ghost of Beata or Sarah? Check below to see the eerie pic!

The epitaph of Beata and Sarah, two girls buried at the Indian Burial Ground. When The Cross Over begins, Beata has died from small pox. Sarah befriends the four travelers, but she too becomes sick and Will, Charlie, Zach and Jillian have three days to help their new friend...or she'll be the next to die!
