MEET THE MAN behind the stories... Lee Tidball, creator of Princess Reborn, has been writing fantasy stories  since before he left elementary school, when he created worlds for the stuffed animals of he and his sister and chronicled the history of their wars.  Those elemental writings have grown now into a body of work that includes two published novels, a published graphic novel, and five completed screenplays.  His stories and style show the influences of some of the most honored writers and directors in children's literature and family-friendly film, including Natalie Babbit (Tuck Everlasting), Katherine Paterson (Bridge to Terabithia), Avi (True Confessions of Charlotte Doyle), C.S. Lewis (Narnia), and George Lucas (Star Wars, Indiana Jones), Princess Reborn, a screenplay based on characters from his novel Hidden Talents; Ginah's Journals, Journal #2, is Lee's first foray into the exciting world of graphic novels, and a thrilling way to bring his screen story to fans regardless of the fickle whims of Hollywood.  Lee's "day job" is teaching 6th graders in his adopted home town of Modesto, California.  He's also founded and coached a youth track team, coached girls' soccer, founded and directed a community children's theater company, as well as acted and sung in numerous church and community theater productions. Lee loves to hear comments from fans!  He can be reached at leetidball@mac.com.
