About Cynthia
Living outside of Austin.Published a few nonfiction articles in a local paper several years ago, but love writing fiction and nonfiction for kids. Am trying to write a book for my daughter, and each niece and nephew, just because they are all so special to me.
Love Dr. Seuss, Jack Prelutsky, Madeliene L'Engle, Alan Katz...
and hearing children laugh and sing...
