Betty Ren Wright dreamed about writing stories and books almost as soon as she was old enough to read them. For many years she was a children's book editor with Western Publishing; during that time she wrote the texts for a number of picture-storybooks. She also published adult short fiction in a wide variety of magazines. Soon after her marriage to Wisconsin artist George Frederiksen in 1976, she left editing to concentrate on writing novels for boys and girls.
