Whimsical Technology
Ken Kawamoto has created a quite delightful device.
The device is capable of downloading information about upcoming weather off the internet, which it then translates into a variety of modes to replicate sunshine, clouds, rain, and even lighting.
The Coolest thing is…
Kawamoto made an early version of the device available as a free open-source project called OpenTempescope so you can try building your own, but a consumer version is planned for Kickstarter later this year.

A Fatal Family Secret By Samantha Marks
If you could change anything about yourself, what would it be?
On the first day of high school, Kayleigh wishes she could be taller, curvier, and cooler. But when she discovers she’s a shape-shifter, she bites off more than she can chew.

Samantha is a Clinical Psychologist and endlessly talented. As you can imagine, the idea of a highly-educated women, with a deep understanding of human nature, writing children’s/YA fiction excites me.
