Mom's Choice Author Camille Matthews guests on The Writing Mama Show

The Writing Mama show is on every Monday and is hosted by Mom's Choice and Award-winning Author Virginia S Grenier, who is joined weekly by guest authors to talk about the publishing and writing industry. Grenier, with her guests, hope to not only share their love of the written word, but also tips on writing, what makes a good book and much more.

This week Grenier is joined by fellow Mom's Choice Author Camille Matthews to talk about her award-winning Quincy the Horse Books series and the lates book in the series, Quincy and Buck. Matthews wanted to become a writer but studied to be a psychotherapist. In 2002 she became certified in the new field of Equine Assisted Psychotherapy and opened one of the first programs in New Mexico. Camille relocated back to the East coast in 2010 and now resides near Reading PA. She is an avid trail rider, lover of American quarter horses and author -- finally fulling her dreams.

The real Quincy whose early experiences inspired the Quincy the Horse series, is an American quarter horse who came to live with Camille when he was 7 years old. Now 24 years old, he is still working as a member of the equine therapy team at Pathfinder Farm in Reading, PA.
