My daughter, Avery, is my influence and inspiration. She always told me I made her toys "come to life." She always pushes me to "go for it," which is what I need to hear some days. Sometimes I feel the need to keep writing to see what happens next like when I am reading a good book and I just cant stop. Other times, however, the computer is inches away from being thrown out the window. She allows me to sit here at the computer, and there have been times when she forces me to take a break to eat. She wants to be a children's author when she gets older. I hope she goes for more...
