Danielle M. Simmons uses humor, snark and a little sass to navigate the hectic, comical and always changing world of parenthood. In addition to raising her two boys (ages 11 and 3), she is a communications executive by day and writer by night. Her first book EVOKE (Gestalt Media, 2019) was a Gold Medal winner in the YA-mystery category in the 2019 Readers Favorite International Book Awards and a sequel planned for late 2020. She loves the Fall, pumpkins, elephants, the rain and beautiful shoes, and is proud of her five generations deep Bay Area roots.
