Nurse Florence®, What Are Memory B Cells? follows three curious girls as they join Nurse Florence in the cafeteria to learn what memory B cells are and why they matter. What was the inspiration for your story?

The plan is to have 700+ books in the series (there are 264 as of April 2026), so we’ll need to cover every human physiology topic to get there.  It was time to cover Memory B cells and the illustrator was motivated to do the topic.

Can you share a bit about your writing process? Do you have any rituals or routines when working on your books?

I actually have a ritual which is to listen to a Beethoven symphony as I write.  It helps get me in the zone so that the words just flow through me.

Have you considered turning the Nurse Florence series into an interactive application for children to continue their learning about how the human body works? 

The priority right now is to have the books in children’s hands to help promote community and family togetherness since these are family books to read together.  Grandparents will find they will learn too.

What topic are you most excited to work on next in the series?

We are producing a third series titled Citizen George to help people have a conversation on civility and common decency as promoted by George Washington.
