What inspired you to write?

As a history major, I authored academic papers for research, but I

did not start authoring stories until 2010. At that time, I began to

author brief stories focused on historical topics for a local news

magazine. I wanted to stay connected with children as I had been

involved with teaching and administration for more than forty

years. So, I decided to write history books for children. My

husband, who is an artist designed the cartoon character, Little

Miss HISTORY based on a younger version of myself.
