    Margot Finke

    Margot Finke is an Aussie transplant who writes mid-grade adventure fiction and rhyming picture books. For many years she has lived in Oregon with her husband and family. Gardening, travel, and reading fill in the cracks between writing. Her husband is very supportive, though not interested in children's books . Their three children are now grown and doing very well. Seven grandchildren are the light of her life. Margot didn't begin serious writing until the day their youngest left for college. This late start drives her writing, and pushes her to work at it every day. Margot said, "I really envy those who began young, and managed to slip into writing mode between kid fights, diaper changes, household disasters, and outside jobs. You are my heroes! " Her 11 picture books tell fun facts about US and Aussie critters, as well as several that offer help to parents and children. Her 5 young teen books feature family, Aussie adventures, or fun fantasy adventure. All her books are in soft cover, and many as either Kindle or Smashword books. Margot also likes to help new writers with her Manuscript "Content" Editing." Let her help you write tight and terrific books.
