Meet Betsy
Welcome to my virtual studio. As both a writer and designer, I’m driven by a curiosity about the world. In my studio, I take that curiosity and use it to create new worlds. Explore to find out more about me, my books, and my thoughts on writing as well as the thoughts of friends who stop by the studio.
