Sheila is the award-winning writer of numerous women's fiction novels and over 100 short stories, published in women's magazines.
She has three married daughters, six little grandchildren, and over the years has enjoyed the companionship of three cats and two dogs. She derived lots of inspiration for her animal books from remembering the pleasure and fun of sharing life with her own pets.
