About The Author

carrie-j.jpg

Carrie J.

Carrie J. earned a BA in English and then went on to spend many years working in the creative realms of both fashion and film. Through her work, she found herself increasingly devoted to characterization, and creating a compelling story-behind-the-story in each of her projects. She is thrilled to be able to bring this same passion and devotion to the playful, imaginative world of writing children's books, as well as creatively directing the Hope and Whimsy Co brand.

Born in the Deep South, Carrie has transplanted her Georgian roots many times living on both east and west coasts, but has currently settled them in the rocky soil of Central Oregon. She now lives on a farm with her husband, four young children, a stubborn mare and cheeky mini pony, and a lovable cat and Labrador. When she isn't working on her next children's book, her time is swallowed whole by a great big beautiful Life of children, farm life, laundry, and trying very hard (but not super successfully) to grow things.
