All About Daisy Dexter Dobbs
Long dedicated to providing the magic of escapism through her books, Daisy Dexter Dobbs started writing happily-ever-after stories when she was five, often reading them aloud to her guests, using a toilet plunger as a microphone.
Today, Daisy’s books transport readers on wondrous voyages of the imagination. Infused with positivity, hope, joy, humor, friendships, family, and romance, her stories often include a touch of magic and fantasy—and always a happily ever after.
Daisy has ghostwritten speeches for politicians; been an art director; a weight loss counselor; mayor’s executive secretary; a Realtor; travel agent; editor; she even worked as a butcher’s meat wrapper, quitting on the spot when she saw a big eyeball coming toward her on the conveyor. Having worked at more than 40 different jobs provides Daisy with a bottomless pit of…questionable experience she draws from for her books.
A Chicago native now residing in the Pacific Northwest, Daisy is happily married to her soul mate, the man who is the inspiration for every hero she creates. They have a wonderful daughter, son-in-law, and rescue granddog. Happily for her family and friends, Daisy no longer feels the need to use a bathroom plunger as a microphone when entertaining guests.

*In case you were wondering:
Director of Daydreams?
All through grade school, Daisy received a big red checkmark on her report card each year with her teacher’s notation:
Daydreams too much!
Admittedly guilty, she has no problem fessing up to the accusation. Daisy did indeed spend inordinate amounts of time gazing off into space, daydreaming about stories she planned to write and pictures she wanted to draw, when she was supposed to be paying attention in class. That, along with reading, was her escape from a dysfunctional childhood. An optimistic realist from an early age, Daisy created stories portraying life and people according to her own upbeat vision. As the years passed, the imaginative stories she wrote and illustrated gained positive attention, praise, high grades, and awards. The dedicated daydreamer was hooked. Today she directs her daydreams, turning them into novels with satisfying, happy endings, presenting them to readers in the hopes that her work will enliven their days with smiles and laughter…perhaps when they may need it most.
