As a mother, grandmother, educator, learner, and lover of nature, writing fulfills Rhonda's  need to share.  Living and teaching in the Charleston, SC area, she is inspired by its history and write to bring a love of this to children.  Having a get-away home at Pawleys Island, SC inspires her writing about the ocean, its inhabitants, and conserving its natural beauty.  Rhonda writes for children of all ages up to young adults.
