Quotation: "Creativity for me involves connections ... whether it's coming up with new book ideas or finding a perfect quote or photo for one of my books."

Fun tidbit: June has always loved playing with creative ideas, including starting the first "dormie" powder puff football game at U.C. Berkeley, I ETA PI, that competed against sorority teams and went on to become "a football dynasty," as reported in the San Francisco Chronicle.
