Susan Nilsen was born and raised in Bloomfield, NJ before moving to Brick, in 1988 where both she and her husband raised three sons. She is affectionately referred to as 'SueSue' by her grandchildren and colleagues. After working in the medical field for 18 years, she decided to pursue a career change that would help her explore her creative side. She began working on her first children's book, 'A Christmas Tree Reunion.' A story created by her mother in-law. She was excited to bring her story to life. After receiving positive feedback on her first book, she decided to write another story, this time about squirrels. Susan enjoys feeding the squirrels that come to her door looking for food. Autumn, with its changing colors of leaves, is the most beautiful time of the year to observe squirrels as they are most active during this season. Her second book, 'My Best Friends Are Trees', is a story about the beauty of nature, friendships, and squirrels. Susan enjoyed writing about Suzie, the squirrel, and her adventures, so she followed it up with another fun adventure for her and her family. As a result, 'Suzie Goes to the Beach', became her third children’s book. She is currently working on more Suzie, the squirrel stories. Stay tuned for her next exciting adventure!
