Welcome! I’m Connie B. Dowell, a children’s and young adult writer and an assistant director for a university writing center. When not at the center, I love to put my tutoring skills to work authors and soon-to-be authors through my editorial services.

On my blog I discuss language, history, and, of course, writing. Whether you want to talk about craft, analyze the ins and outs of historical fiction, or learn why flammable and inflammable are synonyms, I can’t wait to hear from you!
