This is my first post at Blog Hoppin' and I'm ecstatic!!!!!


Thirteen has always been my lucky number + how fitting to receive my invitation to contribute  here on the thirteenth!!!! YIPPEEEEEE!!!!!!!! HUGE THANKS to Deanna Jump!

I'm Debbie Clement, nationally award-winning "music lady" and I've written over 100 original songs onto nine albums!!! And what?!?!?!?! You've never heard of me?!?!?!?! I'm working hard to change all that! LOL I keep a happy, colorful blog of my travels and inspiration over at "RainbowsWithinReach" and I would LUV to have you hop over there for a bigger introduction to my work. If you hop directly to this post right here you're entitled to a FREEEEEEE Mp3 of one of my favorite original ditties: "Monster Spray." A fitting introduction indeed!

I'm now turning my songs into children's picture books. I'm author + illustrator of three books and my newest just won a national award!!!! It's entitled, "Red, White and Blue" and would be the PERFECT support for your studies surrounding President's Day.

My background as a former elementary Art teacher and a Resource teacher to young children with special needs keeps me always searching for visual arts ideas. My blog is full of visual candy, ideas, inspiration, tutorials and encouragement. This post from my school visit earlier this week has had a couple of teachers in tears..... in a good way.
