“When Kimmie is not under the spell of magical healing waters, she spends lots of time writing. She has published two Fiction stories on Kindle, co-authors the NOLA Louise children’s book series with her mom, and is working on a novel about voodoo in south Louisiana. Kimmie currently teaches English in Prague.”
~Abigail Levner, My CurioCity: Storytrail.org Full Story
“A writer from a young age, Kimmie partnered with her mom to create a children’s book series about NOLA Louise. The first in the series, NOLA Goes to the Zoo, takes kids on a tour of New Orleans’ beloved Audubon Zoo, where they can search for all their favorite animals (just as long as they help Mom with chores first!). NOLA Louise Believes is expected to be out sometime in the fall.”

“As a kid, she would write filling up numerous composition notebooks. Most children played make believe, but she took it to the 10th power creating stories far beyond her years.”
