Aimee Avery, a California native, became a world traveler at the tender age of six. Moving from place to place, she spent a good deal of time dreaming up situations for her favorite characters from books and television. She put her imagination to work and earned a degree in graphic design, with a minor in journalism. Aimee spent two and a half decades in the newspaper industry and is now living happily with her husband on California's beautiful Central Coast.
