Once Upon a Mattox

I’m a big child at heart I think. When I first thought about writing, I knew it would be children’s books first. As I started writing, I didn’t imagine a big publishing desk or a stack of manuscripts. I pictured a child, sitting cross-legged on a rug, eyes wide, listening to a story unfold, or even laying in bed listening to a story as my own children did. I have nine grandchildren and one on the way so creating stories they will enjoy is a huge priority. I want to create a spark of wonder. I love seeing that moment when imagination takes flight. That’s why I write for children. This is my adventure and how it’s coming to life because of an ALMOST lost bear I have named Flint. Stay tuned for more of my adventure of writing children’s books and the wonder I have found, and hopefully children will find, in Flint.
