My Biography

 

Here are photos from my early writing years:

 

 

 
3In 1984 I got my first computer (an Apple IIe) and a daisy wheel printer and began to work on my first manuscripts. In graduate school at the University of Michigan, I had won a Hopwood Award for writing, but I wanted nothing more than to be a published author. In 1988 my first two books (How to Find a Ghost and Frog Eyes Loves Pig) were published.

 

4I kept writing books and began to make school visits. From 1988 to 2006, I wrote some twenty-one books that were published. Of course, I wrote others that weren't published. That may come as a surprise, but every writer seems to have a drawer or two of unpublished work.
