Carmela Lavigna Coyle

Carmela LaVigna Coyle lives out west in Colorado with her husband, Mike, their two college-age children, and her lovable, cuddly, precocious pup that gangly answers to the name of Lulu. She is the author of the Do Princesses... series of children's books.

Mike Gordon was brought up in the big city of Manchester, and although he spent time camping in the cold, wet climate of northern England, he soon learned the comfort of five-star hotels. He now resides in dry Santa Barbara, where he spends his days drawing the great outdoors but feels more at home in the malls close to home.
