I wasn't always a writer. When I was young, I was a Reader. I read everything I could get my hands on. When I first learnt to read in Grade one, I was so excited, I rushed home and taught my little brother, Bryan to read too. Now he loves books as much as I do. When we moved to BC, we discovered the Public Library in New Westminster. Our parents would drop us off on Saturdays so we could read to our hearts content. Paradise! When I graduated from university, I got a job teaching, and my favourite thing to teach was, you got it! Reading. I retired from teaching to raise my children, two boys and two girls and we sure read a lot of books. When we ran out of books to read, I'd make up stories for them, and that's when I became a writer and I sold my first book, See You Later, Alligator. When my youngest son started school, I went back to teaching and got the best job in the world that combined my three loves, reading, kids, and books: a teacher/librarian. After a few years of trying to balance the teaching and the writing, I finally gave up teaching so now I can write full time. Yay!
