Meet the Author: JoAnn Wagner
After being in the medical field for 35 years, JoAnn fast-tracked her retirement and became an Author of children’s books in 2014.
Her journey as an Author began when her Pastor gave the Church members a pink flying Pig stress ball and asked them to post pictures on Facebook. People loved meeting Sir Pigglesworth and they smiled and laughed, telling her how adorable they thought he was.
She started posting little quotes with the Pig doing various fun things and soon her friends and her followers told her they and their kids were looking forward to seeing what Sir Pigglesworth was up to next…A STAR WAS BORN!
She’s having the time of her life – come share it with her!
