    Hi Virginia,

    I learned that you are not only a mom of three and the owner of Stories for Children, I also learned that you are a freelance editor and a published author of two books and over 30 short stories and articles. You are quite the busy woman!

Several of her articles, poetry, and a chapter book have been published in the children’s magazines Stories for Children Magazine and knowonder! VS: I want to thank you for being my guest here on The Writing Mama today, Maggie. To get things started can you share what you do to help balance your writing life with your family life? Maggie: Very fortunately for me, I’m retired and my son left the nest some time ago. That doesn’t mean I have no other commitments, of course. In fact, I’m very busy as a freelance editor, but I do have the privilege of being able to control m...
