The Shoes for the Santo Niño, written by Peggy Pond Church with illustrations by Charles M. Carrillo, was reviewed in New Mexico Magazine.
New Mexico Magazine says:
"In the Roman Catholic tradition, and particularly among Hispanic and Native American Catholics in northern New Mexico, Santo Niño (the Christ child) is thought to heal children. Figurines of the saint are believed to leave church altars at night to visit ailing children—the devout leave children’s shoes at his shrines to ensure that he can continue his travels. In this story, Julianita, the youngest of 11 siblings, diligently crafts a pair of shoes for Santo Niño. Unlike he family, Julianita believes that the saint departs the church not to help children, but to gambol about the countryside—just as she dearly wishes she could do herself. Once Julianita delivers the shoes, Santa Niño springs to life, and together the two explore the llano (plains), in this magical tale rich in cultural significance. Tales such as this have been shared among New Mexican families for centuries, and this one is well worth picking up so that your own family can continue the tradition. Originally written in the 1930s by famed New Mexico author Peggy Pond Church, probably best known for The House at Otowi Bridge: The Story of Edith Warner and Los Alamos (University of New Mexico Press, 1959), Shoes for the Santo Niño was lost for almost seven decades. Here it is brought back to life with watercolor illustrations by Santa Fe santero Charles M. Carrillo. Recommended for children five to seven." -- May 2010

Word Harvest Doin's for Summer
We are delighted to host award-winning author and writing teacher Sandi Ault in a special workshop this summer. In "Six Degrees of Separation: From Creating Story Lines to Polishing Your Work - Important Skills A Writer Must Have," Sandi presents vital information writers need to stand out from the pack and succeed as published authors. Sandi will help you sharpen writing skills to develop a dynamic voice; create powerful images with your words; interweave and fine-tuning themes; set your story line and grab the reader; use polishing tools to distinguish your writing; and describe your work to make it easy to sell and market. Sign up now before the class fills! To learn more
If you want to know what it's like to study with Sandi, take a look at the guest blog by Pat Wood, one of Sandi's students at the 2008 Hillerman Conference.
Sandi's WILD INFERNO was a finalist at the recent Colorado Book Awards. The July issue of Women of Writing Magazine and the September issue of Cowboys & Indians both feature Ault. C&I also reviews WILD SORROW. (The same magazine will have an interview with Anne Hillerman about her newest book, Santa Fe Flavors: Best Restaurants and Recipes.)
Ellen Barone recently received the Travel Blissful Blog Award which she posted on her website. She notes, "By now, most businesses (yes, freelancers you ARE a business) realize that there are advantages to having a company website and blog. But, if you're like a lot of the people I meet, you may feel a bit confused, overwhelmed, puzzled and even frustrated by the world of new media and the Internet. You want to spend your time creating, not building a website or navigating Facebook, Twitter or Linked-In. Here's where I come in: I not only understand the new technology, I ENJOY it!"
Ellen will talk about how to use the web to jumpstart new sources of revenue or parlay your interests into creative new platforms during her Santa Fe workshop on Internet marketing on August 7. Space is still available in this interactive class, co-sponsored by Santa Fe Community College.The workshop is intended for writers, photographers, artists, entrepreneurs, and any one curious about websites, internet marketing and other on-line promotional tools.
