Betty Jo Schuler writes at her central Florida home, where she collects
teddy bears, glass paperweights, and what her grown kids call “Betty
Jo-isms—sayings you have to think about twice. “If you
always do what you’ve always done, you’ll always get
what you’ve always got,” is one she likes about writing.
“I suppose that’s why I write in several genres,” she says. “I
like trying something different.” And she must, since her fifteen
published books run the gamut from romance novels to anti-bullying
non-fiction and range in audience age from early chapter books to
adult fiction.
Betty Jo, who has a B.S. and M.A. in elementary education and taught
school for twenty-three years, instructs online courses, “Fundamentals
of Writing for Children” and “You can Write a Romance” for Writer’s
Digest.”
