Susan Brown

Writer, teacher, extreme gardener, traveler and border collie wrangler, I started writing out of boredom – staring out classroom windows and imagining what might be happening in the big wide world.  Inevitably, I started writing down the stories and began publishing books for kids and teens with Scholastic and Atheneum.  Now I’m striking out on my own to epublish thus controling my own writing adventures. As Susan Brown, I write a mix of YA fantasy and realistic fiction.  With Anne Stephenson, I write light romances under the pen name of Stephanie Browning.

The day to day part of my life involves teaching high school, writing whenever I can, nagging three grown daughters and two son-in-laws and spoiling two amazing grandsons.  When we all hang out at together, my two border collie rescue dogs fetch and bark wildly in the excitement of two boys to play with.  After all, these city boys now have four acres of woods, pastures and lawns to tear around in.  Some of my stories use my own home as the background for imaginary characters – characters that have come to seem so real to me, that I feel like they are living here too!

I love to write and share all the meanderings and adventures stirring around in my brain!  Happy reading!
