Notă biografică

Alice makes her debut with "Centipede Dragon A Benevolent Creature" after nine years of allowing it to "mature" in her mind. A medical illustrator by training, Alice has been passionate about children's picture books ever since her teenage years, when she first wrote a book about an Inuit boy and his side-kick penguin pal, who were explorers in their imaginations. When she saw the original illustrations for David Wiesner's "Freefall" at an exhibit at her college, her fervent belief in the power of children's books was cemented. In the intervening years, she was busy with graduate school, establishing herself in her profession (for which she is equally passionate, see www.aliceychen.com), moving different places, traveling, and getting married. In 2012, she re-booted Centipede Dragon. With help from a friend to edit and re-edit (and re-edit) the story line from its original 2005 version, she then unexpectedly went on a massive "drawing tear," cranking out illustration after illustration. "The images kept coming up in my head, and my hands couldn't keep up." After two years of submitting for publication while constantly reviewing and revising the book with no direction or indication as to why it was being rejected, she self-published. "Centipede Dragon A Benevolent Creature" is the first in a series of books about Centipede Dragon and his non-magical and magical friends who experience life together in a village nestled by lake and mountains. The second book is planned to be released in 2017. www.centipededragon.weebly.com
