Welcome!
By Kelly McClymer - December 18, 2008
Simon and Schuster has kindly given me a place to introduce myself to my readers, so I am taking advantage of their kindness to fix a cup of hot tea, sit by the fire and have a little welcoming chat with anyone who might be curious about the writer behind stories like MUST LOVE BLACK and THE SALEM WITCH TRYOUTS. First, I love to ask why, and that's how I get my story ideas (this is a question authors often find annoying...although I don't, so if you ever meet me, feel free to ask me where I get my story ideas -- but be prepared to chat for a while, because TMI is my middle name). Or is that my middle initials? Hmmm. Last, I love to find out the answers to all the questions I come up with. Research can be fun, and I have learned the most arcane things just because I thought to ask questions like "What does a tornado sound like?" "What are the dangers of cheerleading?" and "What does it feel like to be in jail?" So, my tea is now cold and I have to get logs for the fire, or my wood stove will stop keeping me toasty warm. Thanks for stopping by! Kelly
