Under the names of Fay A. Daley and Fay A. Klingler, I coordinated and promoted my writing/illustrating business for over 30 years, conducting extensive research, reviewing and evaluating manuscripts and illustrations, editing submissions for publication, creating and designing books, greeting cards, magazine articles, and illustrations. In addition, as a technical writer/editor and project leader, I wrote or contributed to many railroad, oil refinery, and bank operating or safety manuals. I have won many awards for my non-fiction books. As an indie author, however, I am currently focused on children’s Christian fiction. My children’s book, I Am Strong! I Am Smart!, was a finalist for USA Best Book Awards in the Children’s Religious category. It also received Second Place in the Picture Book Grade School category of the LDSPMA Praiseworthy Awards.
