Bill comes from a military family based in Atlantic Canada; both his parents served in the Royal Canadian Navy. He had interesting careers in architecture and politics. Now retired, he devotes time to fixing up the older home he shares with his wife, Jocelyn, and planning their next travel adventure. He is as surprised as anyone to have become an author and illustrator of children’s books! Jocelyn grew up in Alberta and Saskatchewan—Canada’s prairie heartland. Her working years were spent in marketing, and along the way she has served as a Kinette president, a member of Regina City Council, and an Honorary Colonel in the Canadian Army. She enjoys spending time gardening and making gourmet meals for family and friends. Jocelyn has two adult children of whom she is very proud, and she is thrilled to be the grandmother of two wonderful young boys.
