The inspiration for A Tale of the Twins’ Bond came from my sister’s twins, whose connection was something special to witness, especially when they were younger. When I asked my sister what their little personalities were like, she shared stories that perfectly captured their closeness, how they would switch clothes, share toys, comfort each other, and how one would grow upset if the other left the room, searching until they were together again. The twins even had their own se

The idea for A Tale of Two Puppies began simply: everyone loves puppies. Growing up on the farm, we always had dogs. They were loyal companions, mischievous troublemakers, and a constant source of laughter. Our puppies often wandered off, led by every curious scent drifting across the yard. On a farm, those scents could be pleasant, unpleasant, or wonderfully mysterious, and they often led to unexpected adventures. That became the inspiration for a story about two pups who ge

The inspiration behind A Tale of Two Brothers is my two heavenly-bound brothers who were taken from this world far too early. Peter and Louis, who were 5 and 6 years older than me, were incredibly loved by our whole family. They have been gone from us for 50 and 43 years respectively, but they are never forgotten.

The inspiration for A Tale of Two Piggies began on the farm where one of my sisters still lives, just outside of Arborfield, Saskatchewan— the same place where we grew up surrounded by animals, imagination, and the kind of mischief only siblings can create. During a visit years ago, our eldest sister, who I affectionately nicknamed Princess because she somehow managed to receive special treatment wherever she went, arrived with a close family friend who had long ago adopted h

A Tale of Two Ponies and A Tale of Two Sisters come from my childhood on a farm just outside Arborfield, Saskatchewan. My sister and I rode our ponies every day, sneaking out before our parents woke up to begin our adventures. We didn’t have a forest or a creek nearby, but our imagination took us everywhere — we transformed open fields into dusty frontier towns. Inspired by the spaghetti westerns, we protected the innocent as the Lone Ranger did, and we always caught the bad

A Tale of Two Kitties is inspired by the real journey of my two cats, Bailey and Penny. When I first adopted Bailey at ten months old, she was deeply traumatized. She spent her first month hiding, unable to trust or be approached. Nothing I tried helped her feel safe. Everything changed when I adopted Penny, a confident three‑month‑old kitten with a bright, playful spirit. Penny became Bailey’s guide to the world — teaching her how to play, socialize, and, most importantly, t
