Reade Scott Whinnem grew up in central Connecticut and loved writing from a very young age. He earned his bachelor’s degree from the University of Connecticut and went on to receive his MFA from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. Despite the magic that is springtime in the south, he knew upon graduating from UNCG that his future lay back in New England.

Since 1997, he has had the privilege of teaching media and English at Dennis-Yarmouth Regional High School. His published works include Utten and Plumley (2003), released by Hampton Roads Publishing, and The Pricker Boy (2009), published by Random House. Over the years, he has taught writing to both students and teachers and has been fortunate to lead summer workshops with the Cape Cod Writers Center, the National Writing Project, and other organizations.
