Hi. Some time ago, I tried to see if I could write a children’s fantasy book. FRIEDA’s COOKIES happened. I had planned to come out with a new one every Christmas, but one thing led to another. But I do hope I could find the time to come out with another volume. That said, of all the books my copy editors handled for me, this book was the one that they liked the most. To quote:
I and my panel of three other editors would love to send you an Award Certificate for Frieda’s Cookies, if you would like to accept?
We have chosen this on the basis of an unusual combination of innovation and yet being evocative of a lost period of innocent storytelling. We think it is innovative because it is way outside your normal style and genre, and yet you seem to be very comfortable with it and told the story with such ease and magic!
We think it is magical in its simplicity that harks back to a time when a children’s story was immersive, instructive and beautiful, and the book is all these things.
That was some time ago and I really hope I could add to Frieda’s universe – that strangely shaped part of the cosmos. The book will be available for free download from May 31, 2020 to June 2, 2020 (Sunday to Tuesday, PDT).
Enjoy the book, stay safe, and my utmost thanks for your support.
The Writer.
