Buttons’ Rainy Day

Buttons’ Rainy Day Is an imaginative children's book that teaches young readers the value of courage, creativity, and working together, even on the gloomiest of days. With unwavering courage and a spirit as unyielding as the storm itself, Buttons battled the Puddle Pirates to save his pup Bear. In the end, it was the bond between a young child and his beloved puppy that triumphed over mischief and mayhem. This imaginative child's world is a place where even the smallest of puddles can become a boundless ocean of possibilities, a place where the wild ocean is a treasure trove of stories and adventures waiting to be explored, all within the confines of their own backyard.

About Me

About Me

"I've always been artsy fartsy. If things didn't exist in the world yet, I simply created them." R.M. Rivas

Why an Author?

Why be an Author? In all honesty, why not?

I have always loved reading, far off adventures and learning new things.

A big fan of ancient Egypt and Greece,

I love the art, the history

but most of all, I love the stories.

I can't wait to create something

as magical as their tales one day soon.


FUN FACT

A huge nerd, i love constantly learning

new words and phrases in foreign languages.

In my lifetime I have learned to speak English,

Spanish, French and Attic Greek.

Huge Fan of Special Effects

I recently taught myself to work with liquid latex

and designed my own halloween Leprechaun mask.

I love Halloween, special effects

and Warwick Davis!

As a classics major, I'd love to be able to say

I designed a new character,

a story, or a lasting memory that will far outlive me.

I've got my eye on props and animatronics , so you should definitely stay tuned...

When I’m not writing books, you’ll find me being creative in other ways...
