Author Bio

Picture
Corinne Goyette, Author, Illustrator & Speaker
Corinne Goyette received her Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree in Studio Art from Sam Houston State University. There, she learned to love watercolor, the medium used in the EEPWORM® books. She is also a public speaker advocating for people with mental health special needs, since she struggles with several brain disorders herself, such as ADHD and autism. Having experienced very extreme emotions since she was a young child, Corinne was moved to help other children, especially those who feel the way she does. She hopes that sharing the knowledge and tools she has gained will benefit children and their helpers everywhere.
Corinne's first children’s picture book, My Friend EEPWORM, has been featured on The “D” Suite Radio Show and the We Read Initiative of the Barbara Bush Houston Literacy Foundation. Corinne is available for interviews and presentations.

Sample Testimonials

"Corinne’s vision of supporting children with their big emotions is realized in this beautifully illustrated children’s book. Children who have a difficult time managing their emotions often feel alone, misunderstood, different, out of sorts or isolated. Corinne’s Eepworms help these children feel safe by assuring them that they have someone (or something!) that will stick with them through thick and thin. What a comfort to little souls in distress!” 
-Becky Bailey
Founder of Conscious Discipline®
"Every parent or teacher can relate to a fun time with children turning sour when the fun needs to end. Corinne Goyette's book lets a child enter into the adorable Eepworm's super exciting day of fun with a friend, only to have strong negative emotions almost ruin the day!  Helpful tips within the book allow your child or student to stop, take a break and handle emotions successfully.  A must have on any teacher, parent or school counselor's shelf."
-Lisa Stuckey, M.Ed.
School Counselor

Story Behind the Story

"When I was a child, I often had intense emotions. I wondered why, and I later learned I have brain disorders like ADHD and autism. Feeling overwhelmed and alone, I created the eepworm character to be a calming tool and a friend. I loved how my eepworms felt like a hug in my hand! With my adorable and comforting friends, I could deal with my strongest feelings. As an adult, I wrote this book to help children (and adults) everywhere." — Corinne Goyette
