- About Me:
- I write for all genre's and, although I wrote for kids many years ago, am just now finding a friendly market for the books. In the past year I have received at least ten contracts for kids books, one of which is for a series that will go on as long as I can come up with ideas to keep it going. Most of the books are illustrated by K.C. Snider. I have to give here credit here as the books would not be complete without the illustrations.
Please look at these trailers to see some of the work we have done.

- Favorite Children's Books:
- My first real book was Robert Louis Stevenson's poetry for children. The spine is torn but I still have the book that was given to me when I was about 4 years old.
- Why should kids read?
- I am an advocate of Accellerated Reading in the schools. I think every school should have the program. It is proven that kids that read do much better than kids that don't.
