Ok,
I’ve been wanting to say this for a while now,
and now I finally can!
Watch the video to find out more!
Spoiler alert, this video contains:
- a cool shirt
- singing
- bloopers
- and my handsome BF!
Yes!
It’s true!
I got a book deal!
Here’s the announcement from Publisher’s Weekly:
Kathy Ellen Davis’s TA DA!, in which a child discovers playtime is more fun when she lets her friend join in, celebrating the collaborative storytelling that all children do, to Ariel Richardson at Chronicle Children’s, for publication in Fall 2016, by Lara Perkins at Andrea Brown Literary Agency (World)
YEAH I’m excited, if you couldn’t tell from the video.
I LOVE the great work Chronicle does with books!
I’m so happy to be working with them!
Here’s two pics that I showed in the video, with a bonus third one:
Yup, so that’s all.
Pretty good Monday I’d say 🙂

Oh Kathy Ellen! I’m so excited and proud of you!!!
Oh Melanie, thank you!
I sort of tear up when I think about the day I’ll have my event at Bookshop Santa Cruz,
and everyone from capoeira will come 🙂
Yay! Yay! Yay! I’m so happy it’s official!
Congratulations, Kathy Ellen! I LOVE TA DA! I can’t wait until it’s a real book.
Thanks, Priscilla!
I love all the YAYs, and I’m so happy you can’t wait.
Confession: I can’t either!
Congratulations! I love Chronicle Books!
Thanks, Chris! I love Chronicle Books too!

Thanks, Angela! I can feel your excitement coming through the comment.
And I just had to sing; I can’t help it!
Congratulations!! What a catchy tune! Thanks for your creative announcement!
Thanks Tina!
I know, that’s the catchiest tune, isn’t it?
YAY! Congrats, showgirl! Loved your announcement.
Thanks, Carol!
I’ll take the nickname showgirl 🙂
Congrats on being a Cybils judge…sounds like it will be TONS of fun!
So happy for you! The family enjoyed your singing! 🙂
Thanks, Eric!
I’m glad the family liked my singing 🙂
My dad said, “Thank goodness you’re a writer, because your singing needs some work.”
I’m fully confident that he was joking though.
Congratulations! Love that you added bloopers!
Thanks, Julie! Congrats on being a cybils judge; that sounds like it will be fun.
And yes, bloopers are ALWAYS a must!
SO SO SO SO SO EXCITED. 🙂
Yay! Me too, Jackie!
