I had so much fun at the Humbolt County Children's Author Festival in October. The kids and educators, the volunteers and my fellow authors/illustrators are simply exceptional.  THANK YOU for having me! 

I zoomed with Rancho Isabella Elementary & Northside Elementary's for their virtual author day in Texas.  check out the shirts.

LOOKING FOR VIRTUAL AUTHOR VISITS?  I'm ready to help -- a lot!

Picture
Even before Covid-19, I was doing Virtual Visits for schools, libraries and festivals whenever a host couldn't afford travel and hotel expenses. After Covid-19, a lot of my traditional author visits were converted to Virtual Visits. I have a special studio, the right webcam and microphone equipment and more than 15 different presentation topics to choose from. And almost everyone can afford one -- or two or three or four. 

Want to know more?  Click this VIRTUAL VISITS LINK for the details!  We can help each other and the kids we love!

This is my Virtual Visit backdrop. How could we NOT have a great time exploring the Wonders of Weird ONLINE?

My newest books -- and there are more to come! 

  Thank you, SPokesman Review and Cindy Hval, journalist supreme!

                        I stopped by at "New day Northwest," in Seattle, WA 
                      on  King 5 on Friday, September 27, 2019.  Check it out!

Love that so many of my Seattle friends came to the Redmond book launch for Cryptid Creatures!  Thank you so much!

Thank you, Owen! Your "Nessie" drawing is GReat!

Thank you, Cybils for naming death eaters a middle grade winner!

Kids often ask me, "What would you do if you met Sasquatch?"

The video above is exactly what I'd do. I hope it happens someday!
When I wrote GHOSTLY EVIDENCE, I did a lot of research in haunted places including the haunted house in the video above. See if you hear the voice of a very young ghost in this recording.  And let me know what you think! 

I've lost too many pets recently, so I'm working on a new book --  animal afterlife.  I'm gathering true stories of pets who visited their owners, After they died.  I hope it will help all of us who miss the pets we loved deeply.  The book will take time. So for now,  here's a slideshow of my animal angels. 

​Remember, If you've lost a pet and you're still sad, you'r not alone. I'm here for you!

WANT A STICKER?  Illustrator Rick Spears created this fun sticker design for me. If you want one, email me at kellymilnerh@aol.com and I'll mail you one. It's my way of saying THANK YOU for considering my books and my school visits. I think they are GREAT. I hope you like them, too!
