About The Author
About Mindy
Mindy Baker is a member of the SCBWI and The Atlanta Writer’s Club. With a Master’s degree in Psychology, Mindy lives with her 6-year-old son, husband, chickens, horses, and cats in the middle of the magical Georgia pines. As a UH-60 Blackhawk pilot for the US Army, Mindy learned resiliency, creativity, and that chasing her dreams is always a worthy adventure. Now a travel agent who explores the world, her favorite places are still with her family outside in the woods and inside her imagination. Mindy has written several picture books and middle grade manuscripts, and is just beginning her quest toward becoming a published author.
My writing roots
Writing has always been a passion, and now as a Veteran and a Mother, writing is more than a passion--it is my self-therapy, my creative outlet, my safe space, and my first love. Inspiring children to wonder, laugh, and think is my second love. I love to test my manuscripts with my six-year-old son, Maxton, who is my true love. I love poetry and, unfortunately for my husband, thinking in rhyme is second nature. I love getting lost in my journal and in my imagination--I invite you to join me!
