Elena Carter lives by the sea in the beautiful city of Varna, Bulgaria.
When she’s not writing, you might find her chasing her toddler around the house or pushing the stroller along the city streets, while taking pictures of all the cats and flowers around and at the same time thinking of story ideas.
Elena believes that dreams are meant to be followed, magic actually exists and coffee can fix pretty much anything.
After a career as a librarian, Paulette Bochnig Sharkey turned to writing. She is the author of two library reference books and dozens of articles for parenting publications and children’s magazines. A DOLL FOR GRANDMA: A STORY ABOUT ALZHEIMER’S DISEASE is her first picture book, inspired by her work as a volunteer pianist in memory-care homes.
Master of illusions, Captain of industry, a leader of leaders. Russell J. Fellows is none of these.
He is a storyteller, however.
Russell believes that stories weave magic into everyday life, especially the magic of faith, hope, love, and family in its myriad of forms.
Deep in the heart of Oklahoma, Russell lives with his beautiful wife and two amazing children. When he's not dreaming of new stories to tell, he loves spending time outdoors with his family, playing Everdell or many other family games, or pretending he's a voice actor.
You can see him on his own website russelljfellows.com. He would love to hear your stories, too.
My poetry has appeared in children's, university, national, and international journals. My children’s work is included in Chicken Soup for the Child’s Soul, Highlights for Children, and poetry anthology Words and Other Wild Things.
I’m a member of the Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators and the author of two children’s novels and two poetry collections.
Before the pandemic, I served as the literature judge for my local PTA Reflections Art Program.
