Susan Lintonsmith went from climbing the corporate ladder to falling Under the Couch.

She has spent most of her life in Colorado. She loves the mountains, sports, and spending time with her husband Chris Linton-Smith, her sons Spencer and Justin, and her two adorable dogs.

Susan has been a business executive for over 30 years, working for big brands and companies. Like the mother in the story, she worked long hours and was always stressed and busy. But she dreamed of one day writing books based on the stories she used to tell her sons when they were little.

Her goal is that all kids, especially those who struggle with reading like her boys, will enjoy the adventures Spencer and Justin go on in the Under the Couch series.
