Hi, my name is Pattie Schnetzler. My favorite things are reading, watching movies and having fun. Besides being a writer, I am also a nurse. Since third grade, I have loved writing stories that used my imagination. Ideas come from all around me. My son gave me the idea for Ten Little Dinosaurs. My daughter gave me the idea for Desert Rose - the horse in Widdermaker, and illustrator Jim Harris, gave me the idea to write Widdermaker and Fast 'n' Snappy. Earth Day Birthday came from my love of animals. Writing is a wonderful way to express your self. Keep at it and you can be an author too. Check out my web page at www.pattieschnetzler.com
