Motivated to write a book as a tribute for her son, this writer is creating fantastic resources for parents, teachers and children who need to understand that no matter what, people are people! 

Benjamin was a happy triplet, who also had cerebral palsy. After a series of illnesses he sadly passed away, and Elizabeth was inspired to write a series of books called 'Ben's Adventures' about a happy boy who loved life, and lived it from a wheel chair. 

Elizabeth's story will motivate you to use your life's events to create stories to be shared by other families, just like yours. I know you'll enjoy this one!

Writing was bred into this writer's blood!

For generations the women in Kristin Johnson's family have been writing books, and Kristin has followed tradition. When it comes to writing, she has done IT ALL. Editing, ghostwriting, speaking and of course WRITING: seven books under her name so far!

Her current book AIN'T "U" GOT NO MANNERS has been called "the Bible for social media" and is out right on time. Where have all the manners gone? In her book, Kristin interviews people who've been impacted by social media in some way and it's quite an interesting read. (I mean, who does that?!)

I loved chatting with Kristin about how our new normal (social media, video calls etc) makes the writing profession much less solitary than in years past, and the opportunities for connection abound! 

Enjoy getting to know this wonderful writer!
