"It’s not our job to toughen our children up to face a cruel

and heartless world. It’s our job to raise children who will make the world a little less cruel and heartless." 

~ L.R. Knost

About Me

I'm an author, illustrator, weaver of yarns, and almost certainly not a hundred sugar gliders in a Trench coat. I make stories for the best people in the world: kids!

When I'm not doing that, you'll probably find me doing something geeky: gaming, reading comics, making fabric art, watching Star Trek (TNG or DS9), or baking blue-ribbon cakes. 

​

I'm a member of SCBWI, the 12x12 Picture Book Forum, #PBChat, and #QueerKidLit. I'm also a mom of two small kiddos.
