As an internationally-known author and humorous illustrator, Bron Smith is a proponent of pursuing multiple streams of income within a chosen field. Over the years he has developed several income sources, all within his creative field.
As a child, his big dream was to have his own syndicated comic strip. After many years of failed attempts, his dream finally came true. He beat the long odds and became one of a select few to break into the highly competitive field of newspaper syndication. He has been writing and drawing his syndicated comic panel, Health Capsules, for nine years. Health Capsules appears in newspapers around the world, including cities across India in The Times of India.
He has been creating children’s books and humor books throughout his career. His popular humor book, Where’s Dan Quayle? was a national best-seller, selling 250,000 copies. His Great Thistledown Flood children’s book was a Gold Medallion Honor Book. You can see pages from Where’s Dan Quayle, The Great Thistledown Flood, plus many other children’s book and greeting card projects at http://bronsmith.com/portfolio.htm
Bron just posted the 123rd episode of The Trowbridge Chronicles, his popular hand-scribed story blog. He has been spinning tales from the rain forest on Trowbridge Chronicles for four years.
His newest book is called Washington for Kids. Presented in alphabetical order, Washington for Kids highlights the history, geography, and famous people from Washington State. Bron visits schools throughout the state, wearing his safari costume and presenting his fast-draw assemblies using his giant easel. Bron’s Washington for Kids book has been very well-received in Washington State schools.
