Eileen HeyesText Box: Reading rocks!

Welcome to my website. I’m glad you’re here.

This site has been online for almost five years now. And yet it remains a work in progress. Slow progress at times, but progress nonetheless.  

So come in, look around, stay a while.

Get to know me through my bio. Hint: Books and literacy are big parts of who I am and what I do.

Read excerpts from my books, and see what reviewers have said about them.

Check out my programs for students and adults. I love to visit schools, libraries, and community groups.

Don’t miss my links, which will lead you to lots of fun and informative cyberplaces.

Peruse my rants and raves. I’m a big believer in civil discourse and respectful exchange of ideas. We all have opinions. I’d love to know yours.

Contact me. Offer suggestions on how I can make this site more useful to you. Ask me questions about writing, publishing, or anything else.

This is probably so obvious I don’t even need to say it, but … everything on this site is under copyright. Before you copy or distribute any part of it, ask me for permission.

Again, welcome. Show yourself around. I want this to be a place where we can meet, communicate, and share the joys of books and reading.

Text Box: Writing Tip for July: “Proven” is an adjective, not a verb. The verb form is “proved.” Like this:
She is a proven winner.
The charges against him haven’t been proved.
You’ve proved your point.
