J. D. Monk is the author of a children's book, SLIMY SLICK, The Nighttime Adventures of a Banana Slug, available in both paperback and ebook formats. It achieved best-seller status in certain categories along with a Reader's Favourite award from Goodreads. Her first book, Tea-Time Victoria, now out of print, was a Canadian Best Seller. She wrote her debut novels NICOLE and THE TROUBLEMAKERS under the pen name Maren Hill. These were followed by her debut romance novel OUR FOREVER PLACE. The digital versions are available in Kindle Unlimited. The paperbacks are available on Amazon and through all major bookstores. Growing up with a father who regularly consulted their six-inch-thick Webster's dictionary, Judy developed a love of language and a passion for finding the right word. Judy's craft book, MAKE A SPECTACULAR SEASHELL LAMP, was borne of her creative desires, her love of nature, and her inherent desire to teach and write. The mystery and excitement of writing continues to feed Judy's passion, and the desire to touch others through her work remains a continual draw.
