Darlene Williams lives in the beautiful Texas Hill Country with her
husband, Chris, having a total of four children and five grandchildren.
She
has a passion for travel as well as helping with fund raisers.
Darlene loves to share her books and 'critters' with children of all ages (from
one to one hundred). She did not become a published author until she was sixty,
which is a perfect age to also become the self-proclaimed "Fairy Grandmother".
Her favorite explanation of "Why?" is, "Everyone needs some 'magic' in their
lives. This magic can come in many forms; words, actions, and the sparkle in
people's eyes when they experience something new, fun, or exciting."
She is blessed to have a husband who is a gifted graphics designer to illustrate
her works. His vivid illustrations and graphics help bring everything to life.
Darlene started writing when her youngest grandchild, Victoria, wanted her to
make a costume for Halloween. That's how Victoria's Tooth Fairy Adventure
and Fairyland was born.
Then, Shannon, Victoria's older sister, thought a chapter book would be a
fantastic idea. Of course, it would be about her becoming the Midnight Fairy.
So, The Midnight Fairy came to life.
The Fairy Grandmother is offering yet another adventure in Fairyland. The
book is titled, Three Tales From Fairyland. It is a combination of
three separate stories with an overlapping theme. When you read them, you will
notice some of the same events from another point of view. These tales show how
one incident (or in this case, one tiny fairy field mouse) can alter a number of
events. It also shows how what we sometimes see as a disaster can lead to a much
different ending. She has managed to get not only her family involved in the
book, but two classes of First Graders and two classes of Third Graders. Many of
the characters in the book are adaptations of real people who donated ideas and
drawings for this project. The book is loaded with graphics and holds the
interest from toddlers to grandparents.
