About Marvin
I attended art school in 1969 / 70 and began my professional career working in the graphic arts field in the early 70's. I developed a strong interest in photography and after taking a course worked briefly as baby photographer, then move on to open my own photography business.
After developing an illness which caused me to take time off work I closed my photography business. After being approached by a friend I helped her to open and operate a nursery school / day care centre. During my years as owner / operator of the centre I began writing for children.
Those stories were primarily for use in a classroom setting and were written specifically to include movement and participation of the children.
Eventually I sold my interest in the centre and moved on to other interests.
Recently I began writing professionally. I write articles and have had some modest success in doing so. However, while my focus has not initially been on children's material, my love of children's literature has never waned.
I have recently begun reworking some of my original stories as well as adding a series of new ones. I write for various ages but my principal focus is between 4 and 8. Years of working with children one to one has given me a good feel for what works or doesn't with this age group.
