Bottom line, I let the overly critical and negative remarks of kids and (even) adults get to me.

It was all very exciting, but I was a sensitive kid and putting myself and my words on display filled me with anxiety. I even got to go with the company and tour schools to speak publicly to kids about literacy and writing. I was in the paper, interviewed on the news, and had two book signings-one at Barnes and Noble, the other at Borders. I guess you could say I had my fifteen minutes of local fame. By the time I was 14 I had my first book published. My mother saw it and ended up sending them my manuscript without my knowledge. When I was in 5th grade a publishing company came to my school for an assembly presentation. I’ve written since I was a child, creating my own little stories in crayons or markers and sometimes rewriting the endings of books I’d read. If I’m not writing, in my free time I’m hanging out with my brother watching Doctor Who, Star Trek and anything sci-fi.Ĭan you explain a little about your writing background? Most days my home life is busy and deafeningly loud. They’ve grown up like siblings more so than aunt and nephew. I’m also a caregiver to my 33-year-old sister with special needs. Hello! I’m a wife and mother to a seven-year-old son.

Hi Misty, can you tell me a little more about yourself?

So I am delighted to bring you this interview with Misty Mount, author of The Nanny Song. It gives me real pleasure and I am always fascinated to meet the author behind the work too. I would definitely recommend this book for a casual read.One thing that I love indulging in is, as most of you know, reading. So thumbs-up 👍🏻Misty Mount, well done 👏🏻. Ugh, they were such little brats! But I have to give the author props because anyone who can pull that kind of emotion out of me is obviously a very talented writer indeed. However the story is a very interesting tale and the author keeps you guessing until the end. The story seems to repeat itself several times and stays on one scene for what seems to be too much time which makes it a little harder to read. Ca n Mallory unlock the mystery behind this seemingly normal family?Ī tale of mystery, romance and healing this book was very cleverly written. But this family holds a secret and are not all they seem. Brendan Colt's wife has died and he does his best to take care of his two children Meela and Kason. She does so as a nanny and housekeeper for the Colt family. But when she gets accused of theft and fired she must seek employment elsewhere. Mallory is a strong independent woman with a checkered past.
