Nancy
S. Mure was born in Brooklyn, New York in 1965. She
was raised one of three daughters in a loving and
protective Italian-American household. Nancy
developed a strong sense of family, an affinity for
its customs and a love for pizza, and a good bagel.
As with all things appreciated with the passing
years, Nancy desired to have a strong hold to her
roots.
Brooklyn is her inspiration and where she still calls home.
Before writing "feel good" stories for children ages 6 and beyond, Nancy was employed with Citicorp in various financial and HR Functions. Throughout her 14 year career, she lived in NYC, put herself through college, traveled extensively throughout Europe, and happily managed to ski frequently.
As fate would have it, Nancy returned to Brooklyn. It was the emotional weight of her daughter's birth that compelled her to write a story about her late father then later, a story about dealing with change and never giving up.
Once the creative dam was broken, Nancy continued to write. Her other published stories gently confront concerns such as feeling similar, jealousy and karma, twin-ship, diversity, and making meatballs! Though the topics mentioned may be daunting to some, (especially making meatballs), you can bet that Nancy's stories have a high "feel good factor" similar to such memorable classics as "The Little Engine that Could" by Watty Piper and “Love you Forever”, by Sheila McGraw, in that they instill powerful messages of perseverance, acceptance, encouragement, self-esteem and personal growth in both young children and adults.
Nancy is a proud supporter of the Go Green! Campaign and is super proud that her books are a contribution to that crusade. Hailed as a pioneer for digital reading, Nancy’s mission is to introduce an eco-friendly alternative to conventional books by exposing educators, children, and their parents to an exciting new way to read. She does this by appearing as a featured Author in public and private schools in the NY, tri-state area.
Nancy is a member of the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators (SCBWI). She is a writer for Abbondanza! Magazine, a contributing Author for Life Manual for 21 Century Women, by Svetla Bankova, and will be featured in the Man Book, 101 Things Every Man Should Know How to Do, published by WEBook, 2008.
