“Write something worth reading, or do something worth writing,” advised Ben Franklin. He was pretty good at both. He also worked at the Post Office, like me. I was a Graphic Artist, sometimes clerk, and full-time woolgatherer. I also liked to write. Ever since my first Little Golden Book, illustrated tales of King Arthur and Brothers Grimm fed my imagination and led me to believe dreams can come true.

But writing takes more than a knack for woolgathering. The Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators taught me that. Without them, my stories would never have been written. “If you can dream it, you can do it,” said Walt Disney. He worked in the Post Office too. I call my stories 'Fairly' Tales. They're not Fairy Tales in the traditional sense. They're more 'grin' than Grimm. Have a look, maybe you’ll find something you like … and ‘leave happily ever after’!
