Natalie is the creator of Jenny T. Partridge, the lovable but eccentric dance teacher from Ogden, Utah.

You might wonder where Natalie draws her inspiration from. As the mother of Dancing Daughter, she's spent countless hours working with and around pyscho dance moms. Of course they aren't ALL psycho. Just some of them. Really.

Natalie works regularly with the studio director and draws on real life experiences and people to create the characters who live in Jenny's crazy world. And then she makes them all a little crazier, and eccentric, of course. Sometimes, though, that is not necessary.

"I remember hearing about the two moms here in Utah that got into a fight at a dance competition and the police had to be called. I thought, 'there has to be a book in this.' I was right."

Jenny thinks filling in as a dance instructor on the Hollywood StarMakers Tour will be easy money-until someone makes it clear that they want her to shuffle off to Buffalo. When other instructors start disappearing, Jenny, with the very attractive Detective Tate spotting her, vows that the show will go on.
