Maureen Himler fell in love with writing poetry and short stories at 15 years old. By 24, she self-published two poetry books, "Tender At Heart" and "For Comfort's Sake". In 2015, she published her first children's book, "Princess Emily and the Terrible Itch!", which she wrote for her daughter that suffered from eczema and fragrance allergies. Reader's Favorite gave her a 5 star review for the book. She continues to write children's stories in hopes of publishing them in the near future. Her current poetry book, "My Happy Place", is a collection of her poetry from 1984 - present. She's hoping to be able to inspire other young/future poets with her new book.
