This week I want to introduce you to Allison & Jeff Keeme from My Black Dog Books. Jeff & Allison are the force behind the Violet Apps. I’ve reviewed two of Violet’s adventures in the past and I just got to try out her Christmas outing this weekend. (Watch for the review tomorrow.) Jeff & Allison have a great background story. They were recently married and combined their talents to create storybook apps about a clever little girl named Violet. Allison is the author and illustrator of the stories and Jeff makes them work as apps.
I think my favorite part of their interview is when Allison talks about always wanting to be a children’s author and how she’s made that happen. One of the things I love about doing this website is that I get to hear from all sorts of people who’ve taken a leap and gone for their dreams. Regular people doing brave and extraordinary things.
Instead of sending written answers to my interview questions the Keemes sent me a video response. I hope you enjoy watching it and learning more about the couple behind My Black Dog Books. I found them to be adorable and an inspiration.

Allison is a very talented painter apart from her current books and Jeff
is also a talented photographer. They are a great couple and are an inspiration to us all.
