Beth Mattson is a writer, teacher, and mother in the driftless region of Wisconsin, surrounded by tractors, vegetable sprouts, and beasties of all varieties. She studied at The University of Wisconsin - Madison and California College of The Arts. She teaches at Western Technical College and is an avid pen pal who loves receiving fan art. Ophelia Immune is her first novel, but she has ridiculous poetry about your mom on Twitter and in some chap books. Her laundry is frequently clean, but rarely folded. She laments that emojis are not available in all communication formats.

She Didn't Get Lost

I am happy to report that, after Ophelia's first day of school, she loved being out there in the world, and she didn't bite anybody!!!

Please let me know if she bit you or your child. I am a nervous mama, and would like to apologize and send you some salve if she used her teeth. I swear we're working on this.

Yours,
Beth

Beth’s Quotes

“Everyone around her was just between escaping something and not knowing what might come for them next. All they could do was find those people whose hands they would hold fast when they ran.”
