Amplifying Creativity with a Co-Writer with Abby Mathews and Jeff Bradley

Abby Mathews has an undergraduate degree in art and a master's in education. Before setting her sights on writing, she spent a decade pretending to be the adult in a 9th-grade classroom where she taught drawing and fine art. Now, she's the community manager for Dabble Writer's community, DabbleU Campus. She also teaches a class on memoir and creative writing specifically geared toward veterans. Once upon a time, she co-hosted her own podcast called Mom Writes with book coach Jennie Nash of Author Accelerator. She lives on a hobby farm full of rescue animals, who occasionally make their way into her middle-grade stories.

Jeff Bradley is a software engineer at an animation studio, where he’s inspired by incredible creativity and stories every day. A “Recovering Middle Grader,” he is occasionally funny, usually nice, and always suspicious of a compliment. He writes family-friendly tales about time, ghosts, magic, and space. Jeff lives in the Los Angeles area with his wife, two sons, and dog, all of whom have big plans when they learn how to time travel.
