In second grade,
Becky Wallace
had to sit in the corner because she refused to write anything besides princess stories and fairy tales (and because she talked too much). Her time in isolation gave her plenty of opportunities to dream up the fantasy worlds she’s been dabbling with ever since. She was lucky enough to find her own real-life prince charming. They have four munchkins and live in a happy little village in Texas.
