An elementary teacher who returned home to raise and homeschool my children, I created content for a variety of Christian, parenting, and educational publications before transitioning primarily to fiction. I’ve published nineteen children’s and adult novels and have blogged extensively about children’s literature and self-publishing. A sampling of my work is available to view on Contently.
In addition to improving my craft as a writer, my experience with blogging and self-publishing has given me a wide range of technical skills. They include:
- familiarity with Word
- storyboarding
- editing
- interior ebook design
- interior print design
- formatting ebook text
- formatting print text and converting to PDF
- uploading both print and ebook content utilizing the Kindle, Nook, and other digital platforms
- formatting text as an EPUB file
- converting text to a MOBI file
- extensive research experience (writing historical fiction)
- some digital imaging experience
- creating short, catchy blurbs
- SMO experience
- SEO experience
- familiarity with the WordPress platform
