Rhonda McCormack

Rhonda grew up in a stock suburban neighborhood outside of Kansas City. These were the days when imagination and independence served as trusted guides, and all means of self-expression were explored. From mud sculptures and hand-made gifts to elaborate musical productions. Throughout Rhonda’s life, art and literature have shaped all she’s endeavored, including her twelve-year career as an early childhood educator. Today her creative enthusiasm is directed squarely at writing and the visual arts. As the artist/owner of gongoozler art, she exhibits her work online and in a Scottsdale, Arizona boutique. She’s a long-time member of the Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators, and in the summer of 2012, she debuted her young adult novel, WILDFLOWERS. Currently, she manages two blogs and is weaving her way through her forthcoming novel, ROLL.
