Get to Know Me!
#Boostmybio for #PitchWars 2018
I love the idea of magic and whimsy both of which led to my story, Wishweaver.
There was a day last summer, when a neighbor came by, and she noticed a spiderweb with several milkweed wisps caught in its sticky threads. She said, “She’s catching wishes.” Little did my neighbor know at the time, but she’d inadvertently sparked a story inside me, and it would percolate for a year before getting to where it is today. A Middle Grade Fantasy story called, Wishweaver.
My Book
WISHWEAVER
In the forests of Weyburn, there has always been a Wishweaver—a spider with the magic to grant wishes—but for many years, wishes have gone unanswered, and Whimsy Spider is determined to find out why.
Whimsy has questions, and lots of them: What were they continuing on the Wishweaver traditions for, if there was no Wishweaver? What really happened to the last one? Why hasn’t a new one come to take the other’s place?
With the help of her milkweed wisp friend, Flit, Whimsy will go on a journey to the old Wishweaver Oak in search of answers, but the answers she seeks are buried deep in Weyburn’s past and she’ll have to face her fears in order to find out how to change their wish-less future.
About Me
I spent some of my best career years as a Library Clerk in the Santa Clara County Library system. This brought every possible book to my fingertips and I grew an even larger appreciation for the art of storytelling. With the support of my colleagues, I continued editing Adeline and the Mystic Berries and even participated in
