Ramos, Bethany: - Bethany Ramos is a Colorado-based and Texas-transplanted editor, writer, blogger, and author. My MagicBottle of Emotions is her third children's book and fifth published book, co-written with her writing partner, longtime friend, and former roommate Katherine Bauch. While no parent in their right mind likes bath time, reading to her two sons is Bethany's favorite nightly ritual. Getting to share important messages with kids through her books makes Bethany's life a little more complete. Bethany currently works as a full-time creative writer on all things finance and mortgage for CornerstoneHome Lending, Inc. She has served as Editor-in-Chief for Naturally Healthy Publications, and her work has appeared as a staff writer for SheKnows.com and on Time.com, Yahoo.com, Babble.com, and Mamamia.com.au. Bethany also attended Charis Bible College and the Noble School of Cosmetology, where she became an ordained minister and an esthetician, in that order. Bethany lives with her husband, two sons, and two dogs in Colorado, after moving back to the mountains from SouthTexas to be closer to family. When she's not writing, she's, predictably, reading. And when she's not reading, she's running for fun or, more likely, after her two kids. Bethany stays afloat with an endless cycle of coffee and meditation.
