M.G. Ipock is an up and coming children's author. He was born on an Airforce base in Sumter, SC. When he was three years old, he moved with his parents back to North Texas where he still lives today. He is the father of one beautiful daughter whom he considers his greatest achievement. Throughout the years M.G. has had stories and themes that stuck in his mind. He never gave up the dream of writing and sharing these ideas and stories. With his family and friend's encouragement, he realized his dream and released his first children's book, The Christmas Tortoise written in 2016. M.G. is a firm believer that children's imaginations are not being used to their full potential. He prefers that his books not be illustrated so that the characters can come to life in their own unique way, based on each child's imagination. M.G. spends time prior to publishing, getting feedback from his biggest fans, the children of course! M.G. is always glad to get comments and questions from readers. He can be contacted at mgipock@gmail.com or through his facebook page.
