Book 2, "Gnomeling Goes Home," in "The Tales of Christian Tompta" series will be available on Amazon September 30! I'll be at the Fairborn library that day if you want to come celebrate with me from 2-4pm!

Hi guys! I'm excited to tell you that "Gnomeling" is in a children's edition of a magazine called "Your Secret Library," produced by booksgosocial.com. Yeeha! Have a wonderful day!

If you're Dayton area local and aren't busy, come on out this evening to The Inside Scoop for ice cream and poetry & short story readings by me and my fellow writers from the Fairborn Writers Group at 6:30pm. There are sure to be shenanigans and fun!

I was recently asked to write "A Letter to my Younger Self" for another author's blog. Thanks, Krysten! Check it out here-it has one of my senior pics attached!  http://www.krystenlindsay.com/blog/letter-to-my-younger-self-by-dawn-m-paul

August 12, 6:30 pm - Poetry/Flash Fiction Reading at The Inside Scoop at 313 W. Main St., Fairborn, OH August 19, 8am - 4pm, Yellow Springs Book Fair, Book Signing/Sale at Mills Elementary School September 30, Fairborn Library: more info coming soon.

Series update: I have received book 2 back from my alpha/editor and have begun the artwork. I'm not doing as many illustrations for this book as I did for the first one, so I am hoping to have book 2 out before the end of August!
