Welcome to Roz’s Room, RR, a place where Creativity Thrives! I am excited to welcome you to my room and offer you a place where all of us can share and discuss ideas. As a grandmother of four and a lifelong educator, I look forward to connecting my readers after this unprecedented time of isolation. I am thrilled to hear input from all my readers. No ideas are rejected, no questions are foolish, no opinions are ridiculed, and all participants matter.

I am also thrilled to share with you the results of my second passion on my new ART page. During my quarantine during the pandemic, I not only wrote my first children’s book but rekindled my love of painting. Both the writing and painting were my lifelines. Now, I am sharing both with all of you and hope they bring you the same pleasure they have brought to me. I believe books and art can tap our inner feelings, ignite meaningful communication, and help create a more beautiful world for us all. Please dive into all my pages and share my works with those you love. I hope the products of my own creativity light the creative spark in all of you!

THANK YOU to all of you for your incredible support of my book, An Ordinary Kid in Extraordinary Times. It has been a whirlwind trying to present this book during quarantine, but gradually things are becoming more open, so I have begun scheduling reading times at local schools, book stores, and libraries. Please contact me if you have a suggestions for me in any those categories or other places. Presently, Amazon is the most reliable source for purchasing my book since B&N fails to maintain their stock levels as well. As always, I am willing to mail you signed copies myself if you contact me through my email at roz.author@gmail.com. These have been terrific gifts for young readers who love receiving books signed to them personally by the author. All in all, I am ecstatic and moving on to spreading the word to schools, libraries, doctors, and any other venues focused on the welfare of our children.

Now, I have added my watercolor paintings to my website and hope you will enjoy them too. You may purchase any of paintings by sending me an email at roz.author@gmail.com and letting me know which ones you'd like to have. In fact, I encourage you to take advantage of my limited holiday special good through the end of December. Buy any two paintings and get a third one free! I thank you for your support and invite you to join my “posse” in spreading the word on both endeavors to others. As I said in the book, “We are all stronger when we work together!“

Your friend,

Roz
