Dear Everyone,

Welcome to my 1072studio website!

The stories I write are primarily for children and the middle-grade tween.

I have two picture books, and I've heard that children on the neurodivergent spectrum LOVE the **Monty** book!

And out of my three MIDDLE-grade books, the one I consider to be a magnum opus in children’s literature, soon the be a middle-grade classic is called, **Peach and Plum**. Obviously girls will love *Peach and Plum*, but boys will love the book just as much!

All I ask is that young readers give my books a chance.

Sincerely,

M Johnson

What is the meaning behind 1072 Studio?

The numbers 1072 are the last four digits in the house/landline phone number my mother had for 41 years.

I started with the name Carte Blanche Studios, which I really liked, but it didn’t stick. Then I changed it to Butter Cake Studios, which didn’t make any sense at all, especially when the Web Designer said it sounded like a site for cake recipes instead of books!

So, I went with a name that meant something to me, and I think having a home phone number for 41 years, is a big deal.

Writing is not something I do... It is who I Am.

I just published my 6th book, No Secrets – Just Stuff I Learned Becoming An Indie Author, and I share A LOT of valuable information on how to indie publish your own book. I’ve been trying to read Twisted Love by Ana Huang, but I can’t seem to get into it. And I’ve been binge-watching Grey’s Anatomy, The Bear, and Atlanta.
