Most of my ideas from my books come from my conversations with my son. He’s had developmental issues most his life, but his enthusiasm and contentment has inspired me in many ways. My first book, ‘Why Is It Time to Sleep?’ is an actual conversation we’ve had. I decided to put it in a book. I’ve been writing for most of my life. The genre wasn’t always children’s books, but a mixture of genres. After I started writing, I wanted to put pictures to the words, and that started me drawing a lot more than I had been. Now, I illustrate my own books as well. There have always been lots of ideas in my head for books. Until now, I never had the confidence to write and submit it for publication. I realized after my father passed that he never got to see me become the author I had always talked about. I was all talk and no action. So, I decided though he couldn’t see me in person. I would write books and see them published. Maybe, he’ll see I did become an author like we had always talked about.показать меньше
