C.C. Naughton

Biography

C.C. Naughton lives near a seaside village in Oregon, in a tiny cottage in the woods, next to a blackberry bush which looks suspiciously like the entryway to Twinkle Dingle.

Someday, she wants to be a fairy godmother – but until she figures out how her magic wand works, she will write fiction. It’s basically the same thing as magic, anyway.

Smashwords Interview

Do you remember the first story you ever read, and the impact it had on you?
I don't remember the first story, but the earliest book I remember reading was a large, illustrated book of fairy tales (I still have it!). The stories were greatly condensed, but retained the important elements. I am sure it was a huge inspiration for my love of fairy tales in particular, and fantasy stories in general.
Who are your favorite authors?
Dr. Seuss, Roald Dahl, Astrid Lindgren, Madeleine L'Engle, Lemony Snicket, Anne McCaffrey, Lois Lowry, Jane Yolen, Diane Duane, Diana Wynne Jones, Gail Carson Levine.
