Getting to Know Tiffany Flowers

What are your best and worst experiences as a writer?

My best experience as a writer was selling out at my first book show. My worst experience as a writer was getting a bad review of that same book. I understood then that there are two sides of a coin when it comes to writing books. There are some people who will love your work and others that will hate your work.

How do you handle negative reviews?

I use those reviews to constantly improve my work.

What is your favorite part of the writing process?

My favorite part of the writing process is the prewriting and drafting stage.

About the Book

This book is about a little girl that transports herself to the moon and back with a flick of her imagination. A portion of the proceeds from this book will be donated to New Orleans Public Library Foundation. The purpose of this donation is to aid the Youth Services Department to rebuild the children’s literature collection after the devastation caused by Hurricane Katrina.

About the Author

Tiffany A. Flowers is a native of Chicago, Illinois, and the author of two children’s books.  Born the child of an artist, she spent the majority of her childhood attending poetry readings, festivals, and art shows with her mother.  The majority of her stories reflect a culmination of all of her experiences from childhood to adult. However, the ultimate goal of her work is to promote hope and creativity, and to bring joy into the lives of children.

Tiffany lives in the south and spends her time teaching, writing, reading, and spending time with her family.
