Fletcher, author, has lived her entire life in
Damascus, Virginia. I was a teacher in the
Washington County Virginia Schools for 30 years before
retiring in 2008. I am currently the church
secretary/ministry assistant at the First Baptist Church
in Damascus where I have attended since I was
born. I am the director of the children's choir
and children's department for grades 3-5. I enjoy
working in VBS each year, as well, where I teach the
5th-6th graders. I have always loved Bible stories
and I believe that is why I was led to write and publish
my first book. I published my first book in
2011. I have enjoyed writing and going to writer's
meetings and conferences. My first 5 books are
non-fiction. I am now working on a series of
fiction stories about animals that live in a woodland
area that have a moral to the story. I am also
working on stories from my childhood that will be
entered in Appalachian Writer's contests. I have
just finished Bible stories with time travel. I hope you'll check out my books and let me know what you think of them on my blog page. Emery Reid, illustrator, was a former student of mine in first grade and again in fourth grade. He lives with his wife Cathy, 2 daughters Lucy and Lydia, and 1 son Graham in Southwest Virginia. Emery and his family also attend First Baptist Church in Damascus, Virginia. They are very active with children's church, nursery, and Sunday School. Emery has always been a wonderful artist (although he may not want to admit that). When he agreed to do the illustrations for my books, I only asked him to do something different than he had seen before. As you can see if you purchase the Bible story books, the pictures are beautiful. They are indeed different than others you have seen. He had a very different vision for the story's pictures. I was very impressed with the way they turned out. I think you will be too if you see them. This is me and Rebecca Winters who illustrated "Fletcher's Fables" for me. She works as a cake decorator but her favorite job is working with children as their ministry leader at her church. She is a wonderful artist and did a fabulous job with the animals of Woods Land. I hope you will get the book and see her art work and read my stories. |
