About the Author:
Colette
grew up on a dairy farm in rural Kentucky. She survived the high school
experience back in the day when Aqua Net was bought in bulk and mullets were
cool. That’s also when she realized that her constant daydreaming wasn’t a
curse, but a useful skill—one she used like a lethal weapon to combat her
frustration over the haunting question: What does the alphabet have to do with
math anyway? Unfortunately, her ninja daydreaming skills only increased her
desire to write—not her algebra grade.
After
surviving the hairstyles and torturous math classes of her high school years,
she wandered a bit—even moving to the farthest northwestern corner of the
United States, then to the farthest southeastern corner. She finally settled in
the one red-light town she started in, where she continues to live today with
her husband and three children.
