What is the aim or goal of your writing: My success is due primarily to my love of words and language, my desire to create books that make children say, "Read it again!", and lots of hard work and research. As to my work ethic "I don't write children's stories every day, but I do write daily. Writing ranges from email correspondence to journaling to working on a story. I also work on at least one children's writing task every day. This could be reading the newest picture books, Internet research, revising a manuscript, or thinking through a story idea."

May inquiries be sent to you about doing workshops, readings: Yes
Yes. I love doing school visits and enjoy sharing my knowledge with others interested in children's literature and writing.
