Probably like everyone reading this, I have loved to read my entire life. I can't even remember not being able to read. I always have a book in my possession. One summer, when I was about 10, there was a contest at my local library where I hung out. The child who read the most books got to meet an astronaut and have a picture taken. Of course, I won or I wouldn't be telling this story. I can still remember that I had read over thirty books and the nearest competitor was around ten. Somewhere I still have that picture.
After working over 46 years, I have acquired a list of jobs a mile long: A store clerk, a bank teller, a mother, a DJ, a bookkeeper, a project manager, an artist and more. I have 2 children and 5 grandchildren.
Besides reading, I enjoy photography and drawing. I combined these hobbies and began writing and illustrating stories starring my grandchildren. To my delight, they read them over and over. Their parents aren't quite as overjoyed as they have to read them constantly, too.
My grandchildren's enjoyment of these books encouraged me to pursue a writing career late in life. When I finally retired from my other jobs, I promptly began writing children’s books in earnest. I was born in Vermont but lived most of my life in California. I now reside in Las Vegas, Nevada with my husband of 41 years.
