Hankering for Yarn

My list of 50 books, leaflets and magazines

by Noreen on March 9th, 2008

Karen over at ThriftyMommy

is organizing a ‘top 50′ carnival and invited her fellow b5 bloggers to join her .

My first response was: Not on your life! I don’t have 50 seconds to spare, let alone 50 neurons to fire off for 50 synapses! LOL!

But then, it struck me, I have no idea how many books I’ve got work in….I might as well see how close I get to 50…….

Let’s see….

1] Why not start with the 3 books that I published with Krause books? So, Number one is:
