    Laurel snyder's Interests
GeneralAlmost everything.
MusicSingers with a little banjo in the soul. And a little accordian. And a 'lectric gee-tar. And harmonies that wobble. Also Bruce Springsteen, Leonard Cohen, Otis Redding, old girl groups.
MoviesOh, I'm not picky.
TelevisionToo much. We have to make rules around here to keep me away from the TV.
BooksStegner, Salinger, Waugh, Berryman, Steinbeck, Simic, Salamun, Bishop, Yeats, Blake, Thurber, Lewis, Kundera, Eager, Dahl...
HeroesPeople who give up comfort for the truth. People who do hard work in the world, even when it costs them. And then the entertainers. Too many to count. Anyone who ever made real art.

About me:
I'm a children's author, which is about the most fun job in the universe (with the possible exception of "mom"). I also write essays, poems, and the occasional radio commentary. When I practice the guitar (badly) I sing with an embarassing pretend twang. I cannot garden. I'm ruthlessly honest... And for daily rants and more about me (and my books), you can visit me at JewishyIrishy.com, LaurelSnyder.com, or KidLiterary.blogspot.com!

Who I'd like to meet:

Hi Laurel!

Congratulations on your book! It looks really cute. How many have you had published?

Thank you for adding Marshall Mouse and his author Camille Blue Amy as your friend. I'm helping Camille (who is 71) get started on MySpace as she's a new children's author and we're looking to learn and network with other children's authors, illustrators, publishers and people who love children's books. We also promote and advocate literacy.

If you have time, take a look at Marshall and His Green High-tops and let us know what you think.

All the very best,
Christine and Camille

P.S.
I like your taste in music! (Christine)
