Shirley Martin lives in Ucluelet BC, on the rugged west coast of Vancouver Island, Canada. When not distracted by beachcombing, kayaking, and researching local history, Shirley loves to hunker down and write in her cozy log home by the sea. Kateri O'Leary and the Computer Mouse is her first middle-grade novel. The feisty and freckled Kateri has captured Shirley's imagination; a sequel is in the works.
