There are two things Lily loves most: journeying into magical worlds through stories, and petting every small, fluffy creature she meets (cats, dogs, bunnies, horses, sheep, lonely strays, poodles, pit bulls…).
Even though she’s technically an “adult” now (ugh), she’s kept her entire collection of childhood toys—and continues to write new, exciting adventures starring them.
How many bears does she have? No one knows.
She lost count somewhere in the early 2000s.
Her favorite hobby? Dressing up and helping shy kids come out of their shells by creating improvised theater stories together.
