I've been hooked on this National Geographic show called "Locked Up Abroad". It chronicles people who one way or another got sucked into the life of smuggling drugs internationally, got caught, and served time in foreign prisons. After watching 3 seasons I've learned a few things about that process. Here for your benefit is a PSA which may save you some unnecessary trouble in case you are ever tempted.

For anyone who's interested I just started a Facebook Author Page called  Dan Krall Children's Books where I'll be posting all kinds of updates, behind the scenes looks, promotions and giveaways in the coming weeks and beyond. I've been working on some stuff I think is pretty exciting to promote "The Great Lollipop Caper" which comes out May 7th. So please head on over there and "like" it, if you're into that kind of thing. Thanks!

It's a little alarming how well she understands my day.

Mia was so looking forward to being all grown up when she turned 3.
