Nancy Butts

I'm the author of several books for children, including Cheshire Moon and The Door in the Lake. And in April 2013 I published Spontaneous Combustion: A Writer's Primer for Creative Revival. I am also a book editor, regularly contribute to textbooks and other educational works, teach writing at the Institute of Children's Literature, and do individual manuscript consultations at my website.
