Linda C AppleLinda Apple (aka Sugar) is the author of seven books (nonfiction and fiction) as well as an inspirational/motivational speaker. She is published in sixteen of the Chicken Soup for the Soul books. Linda writes to inspire her readers of all ages. She hs thirteen grandchildren, so it is easy to see why after being surprised with the gift of a cute Scottish Terrier puppy, her writing focused on inspiring children. Her stories about Winston's experiences are based on actual occurrences, and she imagines what her perky pup might say about them if he had the chance. To her surprise when she posted these stories on her Facebook page, Winston was a big hit, and many asked for a Winston book. Thus, BOWWOW: Book of Winston's Words of Wisdom, was written. Linda and Winston live in Northwest Arkansas with her husband Neal, aka Babe. She enjoys creating beauty through gardening and crafts and inspiring with her words, both written and spoken.
