DALLAS CLAYTON: HI, MY NAME IS DALLAS CLAYTON. This is all you need to know about what goes on here: I attempt to create beautiful things. They are sometimes drawn. They are sometimes wrapped in plastic and sold in high-end boutiques for more money than they cost to produce.

I enjoy making almost everything. I'm most passionate about making people happy. My six-year-old son is my pride and joy. Most of all, I adore making him happy.

I'd like to do this more and more every day for the rest of my life. It is for this reason that I write for youngsters. When I'm not writing for kids, I'm writing for adults and the businesses they run, producing illustrations for them, and reading aloud to groups of strangers. Strangers are my favorite people.
