Autorenporträt
Mariah Clark Skewes, known in her real life as Mary Boyle, finds children fascinating! She knows from experience that they have individual personalities that can be shaped, but not changed. Her four adult kiddos are unique and talented, each following their own dreams. Mariah/Mary's degrees in Psychology and Special Education have guided her work with children for many years as both a teacher and school administrator, specializing in connecting with those kiddos who sometimes have presented the greatest challenges - yet yielded the greatest rewards. She lives with her husband on a vineyard in the Sierra Nevada foothills of Northern California where they grow wine grapes and raise honeybees and Babydoll Southdown Sheep. When not writing, she can be found volunteering as a CASA with children in the foster care system, running on trails, competing in world marathons and travelling.
