Anita Dickason
I write about what I know, cops and crime. After twenty-two years with the Dallas Police Department, I have an unending source of inspiration for my plots. Many incidents and characters are based on my experiences. My characters are what is truly fun about writing. I never know where they will take me. There is always something out of the ordinary in my stories.

As the author of eight novels, I have a rather simple method for writing. I channel everything I’ve experienced, heard, seen, read, or researched into my readers through the tantalizing written word. I adore producing unexpected reading adventures in different parts of the world with characters difficult to forget.
I call myself a high-concept author with a literary pen because I firmly believe readers want to experience more than a plot or plot lines, more than nonstop action, and more than a quick genre formula. I think they want to know how the characters feel during their experiences, what they look like, what they wear, what they think, and how they are forever changed by what happens to them and becaus -

Hi:

I am the author of many different types of books. Some are technical and others are fanciful. Illustrated books are my favorite. I believe that you can capture a reader’s attention with a good story but amazing artwork will reel them in and keep them riveted.
Check out my newest series titled Magical Elements of the Periodic Table. Books are presented by unicorns, dragons and wizards. It's Techno-Magical.
Boo's Shoes is my last rabbit and fox book and it is a companion to Cleo Can Tie A Bow! Make sure to put it on your bookshelf so that you'll have it handy when you know someone who wants to learn to tie their shoelaces or any other kind of bow.
