About Me

My Photo
Joanne R. Fritz
A former bookseller and current SCBWI member, I write children's books, poetry, and flash fiction. I'm also a survivor of a ruptured brain aneurysm. So I'm allowed to occasionally forget something. I post on Mondays and occasional other days except when I'm too busy writing!

My Review Policy

While I'm happy to accept review copies provided by publishers, and I do read as many as possible, reading a book does not guarantee a review on the blog.

At this time, I'm not reviewing self-published books or e-books.
