About the authors
Thanks for stopping by! I am a full-time illustrator, doodler, humorist and cartoonist, and lover of dogs, hiking, gardening and some other stuff.
Right about here is where I should write something super-amazing, like I was born in the Arctic and raised by polar bears – but the truth is I grew up in Connecticut with parents who let me play in the dirt and keep lots of pets. After getting a degree from Rhode Island School of Design, I was hired by Hallmark and relocated to Kansas City. After many years of drawing and writing funny stuff for Shoebox Greetings, I started working on art for children's books full-time.
The main reason that you are able to see books I've illustrated here, along with lots of greeting cards in places like Hallmark stores and Walmart, is that I have had the good fortune to work with so many supremely talented people...I have the privilege of having some of the most brilliant, funny, amazing creative types you can imagine as lifelong friends. They always inspire and motivate me to bring my "A" game to everything I do. "You can't use up creativity; the more you use, the more you have." - Maya Angelou
Did you ever wonder what would happen if you took the road less traveled by?
This was a question I often asked myself.
In 1992, I decided to head down a new highway.
I left my lovely job in education and became a children's book author.
Did I miss the children, teacher friends, Blue Cross and Blue Shield? You bet!
But I wrote every day ( well almost), collected reams of rejections, and kept sending out manuscripts
In August of 94, the first contract call came.
Now 22 books later the days flash by with writing, researching, revising, submitting, rejections (Yes, published authors still get them), email, school visits, conference presentations, and book signings.
My husband Earl encourages, edits, advises, takes pictures, helps with research , updates my website which he designed,and prints out maps to schools and bookstores.
I love meeting my readers. And I look forward to hearing from you. Visit my website at wwwkaywinters.com
