Donna has lived in fun locations including England her family-owned campground in New Hampshire and in Hawaii where she served as a U.S. Navy photographer for Fleet Intelligence Pacific. When shes not writing you can usually find her hiking in the woods.Bethany Jayde Stancliffe is a Central Washington-based artist who grew up in the Rockies where she spent her time building tree forts reading fairy tales and filling up sketchbooks. Having had a spectrum of creative interests since childhood ranging from architecture to animation she has found a home in illustration where design and storytelling meet. Following in the footsteps of her parents Bethany studied art and illustration at BYU-Idaho. She draws most of her inspiration from nature films and childhood adventures and has a love for interesting textures and patterns.
