Hinter Penny Roberts steht eigentlich ein Ehepaar, das eines ganz gewiss gemeinsam hat: die Liebe zum Schreiben. Schon früh hatten beide immer nur Bücher im Kopf, und daran hat sich auch bis heute nichts geändert. Und auch wenn der Pfad nicht immer ohne Stolpersteine und Hindernisse war – bereut haben beide ihre Entscheidung, das Hobby zum Beruf zu machen, nie. Denn was kann es Schöneres geben, als mit der Kraft der eigenen Fantasie immer wieder neue Geschichten zu erzählen?
