Tammi Sauer
Children's Book Writer

 

My name is Tammi Sauer. 

I spent most of my first eighteen years on a farm outside the small town of Victoria, Kansas (population:  1,208).  My roles included gathering the eggs when the city cousins visited and wanted to engage in novelty farm-like activities, chasing pigs back to their respective pens when they tried to make a break for it (I did this once while wearing my eighth grade cheerleading uniform—don’t ask), and swindling my younger sister and brother out of their money. 

I graduated from Kansas State University with a B.S. in Elementary Education and married my high school sweetheart, Ron Sauer.  We did not return to Victoria, causing the town’s population to plummet to 1,206. 

I have taught summer school, pre-kindergarten, and the middle school electives Creative Writing and Storytelling.  I also spent two years serving as a library media specialist for a pre-k through eighth grade school. 

Each day I try to squeeze in some time for writing as writing is my passion.  Most of the time, however, is spent with my family.  Ron and I have a ten-year-old daughter Julia who aspires to be an archeologist/artist/children's book writer/veterinarian and an eight-year-old son Mason who loves everything ninja. 

In addition to writing, I love to read, ski, spend time with my family and friends, go to movies, and eat out as often as possible.  What is more, I am hopelessly addicted to checking my e-mail.

My family and I live in Edmond, Oklahoma, with one dog, two geckos, and a tank full of random fish.
