My name is Randi Mckinnon. I came to this country from Norway in 1959 and settled in Oregon. After working in the Food and Hospitality Service 40 some old year, I retired. Thinking retirement was boring. I needed something new to hold my interest. I decided to take a correspondence course in writing of children’s books through the institute of Children’s Literature.

Most of my stories are fictions as I embellish on stories told to me as a child. I had no playmates and made up my own games. Trolls, fairies, and the like were believed to be real, according to our grandparents. So remembering these. I have a lot to write about. 

Some of my sentence structure mat not be quite correct as I something mix my two languages together. Here’s hoping I’ll be forgiven! This is me in nutshell!
