Background Information

I believe growing up in coal mining country in Virginia influenced my writing more than any other factor.  As a child I wrote stories about my classmates whose fathers and brothers worked in the coal mines.  I saw the day to day struggle of getting enough to eat and having sufficient clothing to wear to school.  The teachers kept a clothes closet for those in need. I became an elementary school teacher and later a librarian. The final years before retirement were spent as a college librarian.  In that capacity I taught children's literature which was one of my most enjoyable experiences The desire to write was always there but I kept putting it off until retirement.  I may never have brought it to the forefront if I had not been diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease.  I had trouble sleeping and I decided to use that time to begin writing. Ten  years later I have written fourteen books and well into numbers fifteen and sixteen. I've gone into the world of children's books.  What a fun and rewarding task.  I have three on the market as of September 16, 2016. I am thankful to have grown up in the Appalachians, rich in history.  My experiences and contacts as a teacher and librarian gave me the skills to express these life influences in my writing.
