Where Else Do Babies Come From?: A Family Guide to Assisted Reproduction

I had the kind of childhood that generally does not create great art since it was almost cartoonishly happy. My brothers and I had doting parents, wonderful friends and the run of an idyllic little village in Connecticut. Most of my writing is a sort of wish fulfillment; what if there really was magic in the world? What if we had to go back to the pioneer days? What if we could bring back the souls of people we love? I started Golden Light Factory because I love igniting curiosity in young people, and I believe that books have the power to do that. I live with my hubby, three children and several chickens in an idyllic little village in Vermont.

Thanks to my parents, every house I've lived in had an art table set up in the basement, so I have been crafting things, painting things and decorating things since before I can remember. My current home also has a messy drafting table in the basement, where I have enjoyed working on this book. I'm hopeful others will enjoy the levity we've tried to inject into this topic. My husband, two daughters and I live in the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont, where I teach art at Northern Vermont University and also do graphic design. I am really grateful to my parents for never questioning my desire to gravitate towards whatever places and jobs that let me make stuff- and for always letting me mess up a corner of their basement.
