About Willow |
When I was a little girl, we lived in a house that had peach and apple trees in the back yard and a willow tree in front. I loved to play out under the trees--they were my friends. And I loved to read books like The Wizard of Oz and Wind in the Willows. That little girl is alive and well in my heart and she's the one who insisted I start writing a fantasy novel--AND create a fantasy map of the Three Kingdoms. |

Nevertheless, her mother’s vivid imagination turns every setback into an adventure and every dingy rented room into Shangri-La or Camelot. Read more.... |
