Wind blow'n,
Without me know'n,
Where I'm going.
Hear the quiet in the roar,
Scoot'n away from shore.
Put'n down the nautical miles,
In my sea of smiles.
Salty-sweet happy tears,
Sailing thru the years.
You can share it with me,
if you don't mind the sea.

Working Hard
These past few weeks have been down right BUSY! I've been working with my publisher, Tate Publishing, to get my book completed and ready for distribution.
I am also cooking up some ideas for classroom activities. I want to share my love of reading, writing, and water conservation with children EVERYWHERE. I'd sing it from a mountain top, but you'll just have to just check it out at the following sites:

Working in partnership with the Chesapeake Bay Trust and the Chesapeake Conservation Corp, I will be sponsoring a coloring contest. Complete details to follow, so stay tuned!

Salty Summer
The McCartney boys and their friends dive into the mysterious deep blue. When the kids aren't racing their sailboats or fishing, they love hearing tall tales and ancient maritime myths.
Is their grandfather really a pirate? Are their really mermaids swimming beneath them? Is there really such a thing as a salt water cat?
As the boys explore the area and listen to nautical legends, they learn that life might just be stranger than they think. With all the thrill of a swift boat under full sail, Donna whisks young readers off on a series of adventures and introduces them to sailing, fishing, nautical legends and lore. There's never a dull moment when an ocean full of wonders is waiting!
The days are long, the ocean is wide and it's guaranteed to be a Salty Summer.
