Melissa Ann Goodwin spent a happy childhood living in her imagination and writing stories in her head. It was only a matter of time before those stories spilled out onto the written page. She has been published extensively in children's and national magazines and won a Writer's Digest Annual Poetry Competition Award in 2010. The Christmas Village and its sequel, Return to Canterbury, are the culmination of her lifelong dream to write the kind of books she loved to read as a child.Co-Author of Tips for New RVers: Catchin' the Dream:Throughout their more than 30 years together, author Melissa Ann Goodwin and artist J.R. Secor have supported each other's artistic, creative and lifestyle dreams, including their dream to live and travel full-time in an RV. When they decided to sell their home and hit the road, they were completely new to RVing. Through research and day to day living they learned (sometimes the hard way) about RV life, especially how to Make it Easy and Keep it Simple.All along the way, they blogged about the experience; Melissa sharing photographs and road stories and J.R. sharing his art and painting techniques, along with RVing information, advice and tips. His practical advice, straight-shooter approach and enthusiastic encouragement have helped many a wanna-be RVer take the leap into his or her own RV adventures. Now Melissa and J.R. are delighted to share their experiences and insight in this book, with the hope that it will encourage even more people to realize their RV dreams.
