Lyndsay Wasko grew up writing stories and drawing animals and years later, not much has changed. She lives in Calgary with her family and generally aspires to the life of a Beatrix Potter animal: baking, sewing, gardening, and being in nature. She especially enjoys river walks with her dog, Watson.
