She has self published 'Blood of Ancient Kings' which won an award in the very first contest she had ever entered. Her second book, 'Dracona’s Rebirth', is published by Ink Smith Publishing. Always fascinated by both medieval times and sci-fi she was an avid reader and enjoyed a wide variety of literature and authors. She began writing in the late 1980’s after graduating from Dixie State University in St. George, Utah, where she studied Fantasy Lit and Writing. Valerie is a member of the League of Utah Writers. Although she thought she was writing a short story when she began 'Dracona’s Rebirth' it blossomed into the full novel it is today. The good values Valerie was brought up with she instilled both in her children and in her writing. One of her first professional reviews commented that the story reminded him of the Boy Scout Law. While Valerie has been both a Boy Scout leader and a Girl Scout leader the story was written before then. You can visit her at www.vjogardner.com.voir moins
