I have been writing for a little while, but never had thought about a book, until just recently. I draw and design ideas for a doll house that was given to me; I crochet and knit. I was born in Ventura, County and raised in Texas; my dad was in the Air force. We moved back to California in the “60s, where I went to high school and later working in my adult life. I have one older brother and two younger sisters. I worked in several places in California, before I had been offered a job as a nanny, which I worked for a period of 20 years. It was an experience living Switzerland for that amount of time and as a nanny; went to a lot of places like Scotland, England, Spain and Italy. Some of these places were so wonderful that I visited more than once. I began to write this book in Switzerland; I had been there for a few years when I started writing “Cats, Dogs and Horses.’ It was then I was offered another nanny job. This family was animal friendly: a cat and two dogs in the beginning. We moved into two more houses in the vicinity, the big house up farther was the last of the houses, and it was the biggest. As we moved into the bigger house the horse of the name Asta La Vista was the other exciting example, and the last of the animals that would fit into the story line living there was the inspiration for the book, so you might say it would be non- fiction, but the writing came from the heart.
