GUEST:
Maggie Grinnell found her love for writing in college and since then has honed her skills writing picture books, poetry, and articles about writing. Her imagination and personal experiences inspire her to create stories with meaning. She is active with the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators in her region and is constantly enhancing her skills with writing workshops.
Maggie’s favorite things to do besides putting thoughts on paper are to go to the movies, read a good book, visit Disneyland (yeah I am still a kid at heart), and listen to music. You can read more about Maggie on her website https://www.maggiegrinnell.com
