Hi. My name is Shirin Yim Leos, formerly Shirin Yim Bridges, and I am an Ezra Jack Keats Award-winning author of 21 books; an editor, writing coach and retreat leader; a Publishers Weekly “new author to watch”—and several years later, front cover feature; and founding goose of Goosebottom Books. I have taught writing and publishing at the NSW Writers’ Center in Australia, the AFCC in Singapore, the Writing Salons in San Francisco and Berkeley, and for eight universities including Stanford. As you will see from these pages, my latest picture book, EAT YOUR PEAS, JULIUS! just launched on August 16, 2022. Its companions GO TO BED, TED! and GET UP, ELIZABETH! have found their way, to my great satisfaction, into the hands of Theodore Roosevelt V and the shelves of the British Library Gift Shop respectively. In the meantime, I am trying to find an agent for a novel I just completed, and am now working on a second. If you are a writer too, I hope our journeys overlap!
