Peggy Eddleman

Peggy Eddleman wrote several books before SKY JUMPERS. She was in the middle of one of those books– an urban fantasy– when she, along with her husband and three kids, went to Disney World. On the plane home, she stared out the window at the wrong side of the clouds that covered the country that day, imagining what it would be like if she jumped out of the plane and those clouds slowed her fall– like jumping into water. The very beginning of the idea that later became Sky Jumpers formed in her head on that ride home.

Today, she enjoys painting (especially wall murals), playing games with her family (especially their favorite: laser tag), creating things with her hands (drawing, home remodeling, sculpting, paper crafts, sewing, making videos, editing photos), and of course, reading! She lives with her husband and three kids, close enough to her childhood stomping grounds that her kids know the magic in Vilcabamba, too.
