Hiya! Sherilyn Putnam, I am. A mom, a writer, a geek. I was with the publisher Booktrope, but now that they have closed I am a self published author. I write children's, middle grade, and YA books. They most always have a message of "be who you are, not who others think you should be." I get tons of inspiration from my two daughters and the chaos they cause, as well as the stories I make up to tell them at bedtime. We live in a small house with one (highly insane) cat and a miniature dachshund (with a Napoleon complex).
