When author, Kristina Schram, was growing up she wanted to be a star. When that didn’t turn out quite like she expected, she turned her mind to achieving other goals: Earning her Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology, working as an Artist-in-Residence at local schools, being a free-lance editor and reader, coaching parks & rec basketball, protecting the earth, improving her photography skills, working at her local library, traveling, and writing and publishing books about quirky characters, mystery and adventure, and romance. Knowing what it’s like to struggle with self-doubt and lack of confidence, her biggest dream (in addition to owning a castle) is to stamp out low self-esteem in everyone, especially young people. She lives in beautiful, wooded New Hampshire with her husband, and can split wood and throw a tomahawk, if need be. One of her favorite things to do is to go exploring, where she searches for the impossible around every corner. Sometimes she finds it.
