Meet your Adventure Writing Coach : Trudi Trueit
|
Growing up in Kent, WA, I loved reading and storytelling. I started writing plays in the fourth-grade. I'd cast my friends in the roles and our teacher, Mrs. Zielinski, would let us perform them for the class and sometimes, the whole school! After earning a B.A. from Pacific Lutheran University in Tacoma, WA, I became a TV news reporter and weather forecaster, first for KAPP TV in Yakima, WA then KREM TV in Spokane, WA. My first book contract for kids was a weather series for Scholastic. A few years later came my debut fiction series, Julep O'Toole (Penguin). Since then, I've published more than 100 fiction and nonfiction titles for young readers (you'll find a complete list of my titles in the media kit). With the release of the EXPLORER ACADEMY series, I became the first author to write fiction for National Geographic (a huge thrill!). |
