Background
Information
|
|
Edna was born in Singapore and currently residing in Cleveland, Ohio USA. The writing bug that was suppressed for a long time has finally taken over. Since then, her children's stories and articles have appeared in several magazines. She's currently working on a few picture books and a middle grade novel. May the first book deal come her way very soon!
Edna writes mainly for children, with occasional pieces for adult audiences. One long term project is to transform her mother's wise sayings into a memoir. Her mom's 101 uses of rafia strings....and "thesis" on cooking chilli crabs...
P.S. To take a break from the many characters and plots wrestling in her head, Edna teaches her pet Westie to roll over.
