Julie Dare

Julie Dare's lifelong obsession with words was cemented at age 13 with a trip to the National Spelling Bee. Since then, she's garnered writing credits on the streaming drama series 5th Ward (UMC) and over 40 children's books, including Royal Palm Literary Award-winning "Sofia's Flower."
