One of the pleasures of the blogosphere is meeting people like Rosi Hollinbeck. Okay, so Rosi isn’t a superstar. Neither am I. We chanced to meet because Rosi and a bunch of other folks (thank you all!) left comments during last week’s Blue Thread blog tour. Rosi won a signed copy of Blue Thread and a sample of licorice from Sweets Etc.
A former high school English teacher, Rosi works almost entirely on children’s books, stories, poems, and articles, including two completed novels. She has a rhyming story that will be in the anthology Fifty Funny Poems for Children, to be published in the U.K, and a memoir to be published in a Christmas anthology from Harlequin, both in 2012. She can be found on the blogosphere at The Write Stuff.
If you missed any of the tour stops, here are the links to days one, two, three, four, and five. And a bonus link to an interview on Electrifying Reviews.
Thanks again to Barbara Krasner, Cynthia Levy, Lisa Ard, Maeve Tynan, and Miranda Paul for hosting tour stops. And thanks as well to Alex Bennett, for our to back-to-back interviews.






My name is Ruth. I write books and articles for children and young adults. Blue Thread is my eleventh book, and the first one in which I have knowingly stretched the truth.
