Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
When my daughter was about 8 years old a friend asked if she was an Indigo child. I’d never heard of Indigo Children before but something sparked my interest and I began to write a story. Indigo and the Strange Animal Menagerie was the result. It tells the story of Indigo who uncovers a pet smuggling ring in her local pet shop and uses her powers to save the animals.
