More About the Author
Veda Boyd Jones is the author of 42 books with traditional publishers, some for adult markets, most for children. Publishers include Scholastic, Barbour, McGraw-Hill, Lerner, Lucent, Chelsea House, Wendy Pye, Avalon, and Seedling. In addition,she's had over 500 short stories or articles published in magazines (Woman's World, The Writer, Harris' Farmer's Almanac, Highlights, Cricket, Humpty Dumpty and many others). Now she's ventured into the e-world with Joe's Ghost on Kindle.
She says, "I am never bored when waiting in a doctor's or dentist's office, since I just turn on my imagination and invent characters to go along with the people sitting in chairs around me. But that's when I'm thinking of fiction.
I write a good deal of nonfiction for children. This is an entirely different way of writing. Ninety percent of my time is spent researching and documenting facts. Kids believe what they see in print, and my job is to make sure it is accurate."
