​CYNTHIA LORD
Picture

   Cynthia describes herself as a children's book writer, seaglass collector,
   daydreamer, and the mother of two teenagers. She was a teacher for many
   years, teaching grades 1 and 6. She grew up in New Hampshire, and now
   lives in Maine, USA. 
As her children grew, she began to write more fiction.
   "Now, I get up most mornings between 3:30 and 4:00 AM. I tiptoe through
   my dark kitchen, flick on the coffeemaker, and sit down at my desk. That's
   my own time, the just-me time to open my heart and spill it across white
   pages. Early morning is a beautiful time, still and dark, and I can smell the
   ocean many mornings when I open the window next to my computer."
