BEARD, Darleen Bailey.

I was inspired to write in fifth grade, when my teacher, Mrs. Jacqui Schickling, would ask us to write stories with our spelling words. Not again! We have to write another story? Schickling would ask me to stand in front of our class and read my stories. It varies for each book but basically, I start with an idea that I find interesting. I add characters to bring this idea to life.

BEARD, Darleen Bailey PERSONAL: Born January 24, ; daughter of Larry (involved in greenhouse business) and Ella Holman (a homemaker) Bailey; children: Spencer, Karalee.

Oh, gosh! But that said, my prettiest book is "Twister" , a picture book illustrated by Nancy Carpenter, about a brother and sister who experience a twister alone in their cellar. Read, read, read. Write, write, write.
