Why I Write These Books
I created the Landon Learns series after watching my youngest nephews—Kamron, Trenton, and Jackson—navigate a fast-paced, digital world where kindness isn’t always modeled.
In 2016, I wrote my first book, Bronco Strong, and later published Golom’s Magical Gamers to encourage imagination and bravery.
But it was in 2023, while dreaming up the curious and spirited Layla Louise Leader (“L3”), that I saw a bigger vision. L3, her brother Landon, and their adventures became the heart of this series.
My mission? To equip children, parents, and educators with tools to talk about big topics—bullying, boundaries, and emotional safety—in a way that’s accessible and real.
