Now she's ventured into the e-world with Joe's Ghost, That Sunday Afternoon, The Cowboy's Christmas Secret and other books on Kindle.She says, "I am never bored when waiting in a doctor's or dentist's office, since I just turn on my imagination and invent characters to go along with the people sitting in chairs around me. But that's when I'm thinking of fiction.I write a good deal of nonfiction for children. This is an entirely different way of writing. Ninety percent of my time is spent researching and documenting facts. Kids believe what they see in print, and my job is to make sure it is accurate."You can see her entire bibliography at http://vedaboydjones.com
