Kate Penndorf is an author, whose premise for her first MG book came to her while commuting to work in NYC. As a developmental editor, Kate loves helping other writers hone their craft and polishing their manuscript.

Valerie Heller traces her squiggly path to becoming a writer back to Mrs. Hodges’ first and second grade classroom, where she wrote and illustrated her very first books. An NCTE member and Teacher-Consultant with the National Writing Project, she transformed her classroom into a reading and writing workshop, where she read and wrote alongside her students.

Inspired by the edits and workshops Kate and Valerie have given--along with coaching writers as they plot their stories-- they co-founded "The Insiders Coaching Club".
