About the Author
I was born and raised in an eclectic suburb of Oklahoma City. My world is my family and my cats, I have one in every flavor. In my free time, I’m working in my garden, antiquing with my husband, or taking the occasional haunted history tour. My passions are nature, historic homes, and traveling to unusual places. The Nature Keepers is my first book.
Qn 1: Can you tell us more about your book What is it about?
My story is about a young girl. On an ordinary day in the idyllic town of Cordial, a place where litter does not exist, and the residents are as cookie-cutter as the homes. A fifteen-year-old girl called Bug is rudely pulled from her book for a brown sugar emergency.
This humdrum errand to the neighborhood market plummets Bug into a conundrum that could change the world.
When Bug spots a mysterious girl sneak into the forest, she enters this forbidden place to find her.
Bug uncovers extraordinary secrets about nature. The pair along with a new friend, a native boy of the forest learn mythical beings from books are actually real. “Great grasshopper!”
While exploring secret portals within the trees they meet an enemy in disguise with a sinister plan.
Bug needs to stop an evil plan and set back the natural order of things, and still make it home for dinner.

My book will appeal to middle-grade, young adult, and anyone who enjoys kids adventure stories.
Qn 3: Out of all the books in the world, and all the authors, which are your favourite and why?
JK Rowling and the Harry Potter series. Even though this series of books are middle-grade they appeal to people of all ages. These stories created a world in which young and old alike wish they could live.
