New Book

"To say that The Sheltering Cedar is a lovely book doesn't do it justice. The spare, evocative text and warm, detailed watercolors bespeak Anne Runyon's love for Ocracoke Island.”
—Eileen Heyes, author of the O’Dwyer & Grady mysteries.

Read 'The Story of Crooked Jaw'

Crooked Jaw is a big black rat snake who has lived under our house for years. Each spring, my mother climbs down into the cellar to get out her garden tools.

I look carefully at the world and I draw. Noticing marvelous details, I illustrate, sculpt paper, write and tell stories. I read good books and think, wonder. I walk down the street, into the forest or across the dunes with my dog. Always, I look carefully at our world.
