M.E. Furman

I think I’ve always been a writer at heart. My favorite childhood books featured writers--Harriet the Spy, Little Women, etc.--and I remember starting some writing attempts in the fourth grade when I first read those stories. For a long time, I set aside ideas of being a ‘writer,’ but always wrote as part of jobs in broadcasting, marketing, etc. After attending a couple of writer’s workshops and conferences, I realized I really did have a shot at being published. I have written primarily inspirational things in the past, but it’s been fun to go back to my earliest love for books and write for children.
