It wasn't a dream or even the slightest consideration to write since literature wasn't my strong point. As a matter of fact, most subjects in school were a total disaster. If art and creativity would have been on the menue, school and I may have bonded. After failing Grade 4, 9 and about to fail Grade 10, school and I parted ways. Being a touch dyslexic, left handed and born January 13 didn't boost my educational skills. Add to that my father's encouragement. He said I was a Fly Brain because I never stuck to anything. Maybe it was that annoying ADHD that plagued me? In spite of those outstanding traits, my first three self-published Peggy of the Cove books became Canadian best sellers. The fourth Ransomed was just released in May so we'll have to wait and see how that one goes. Historical fiction would best describe Peggy of the Cove books. Windywood Publishing picked up The Adventures of Ivan which is what I call my corny book.
