For the KIDS:

I am a writer. I have always been one, even when I was very small! I write stories, poems, books, things-to-do lists, recipes, lunchbox notes on napkins to my kids, and things I see in the world. Here is one of the first books I wrote, when I was small. I think it’s called I Saw a Bear One Day But He Was My Cat:

I live in Seattle, where the mountains and the forest and the sea meet. It’s my favorite place in the world. We have lots of interesting animals here like seals, bald eagles, and orca whales!

Some things I like are: my family, long runs, boats of all kinds, wildlife, sunshine, and vacuuming. Yep, I like vacuuming. What do you like?
