About the Author
"The day my manuscript was made it into a
book, I took a trip to a local bookstore. I stood there looking at all of the
books in front of me and said to myself, "You can officially call yourself an
author!" I want to be one of the best writers there ever was for my sake and for
those people that read and enjoy my books. I want people to come back again and
again to read my books because there is something there that is meaningful to
them. I want my work to touch the readers' heart in some way."
Nancy Dick is a graduate from Ball State University, in Indiana, with a degree in writing: journalism. And, she has a bachelors and masters degree in sociology from BSU as well. She also has a degree in art from Thomas Edison State College in New Jersey, just outside New York City. She has also been in the publications Powerlines of Rev. Robert Schuller. She graduated from high school from a parochial school: Nativity Of Our Lord in Michigan. Any religious reference in this book would come from that time and experience. Likewise, she has been an avid gardener since childhood which gave her a wide range of experience with the life of nature and gardening to reference this book: Amanda Goes To Las Vegas. She spent many years living in or near farming communities in Indiana where the popular yellow and green John Deere tractor dotted the landscapes as farmers plowed their farm fields.
