Raised in a house with thousands of books, I have been writing stories ever since I can remember and dreaming of when my books would join the ranks. Now an editor as well, I love helping other writers achieve their dreams.
I draw inspiration for my writing from the Greatest Story Ever Told, which culminates in the Messiah’s salvation offered to every person. My life would be meaningless without my relationship with Jesus. I'm also inspired by the classics, especially the works of my favorite authors, such as Jane Austen, Elizabeth Goudge, L. M. Montgomery, and Elizabeth Gaskell.
Like some of my fictional characters, I grew up homeschooled. As an avid student of the Bible, I'm trying to make Hebrew my second language. To counteract all that sitting still, I love being active, especially hiking, dancing, and practicing martial arts. My other favorite things include deep conversations with my family and friends, handcrafting birthday cards, playing piano, listening to classical and Celtic music, and traveling. In fact, traveling always gives me a hefty dose of writing inspiration … especially when the UK is the destination.
I make my home in the Texas Panhandle with my husband, our daughter, our German shepherd, and our half-Siamese cat. And yes, Pippin is no exception to cats in general—he likes to sit on or in front of my laptop when I'm trying to work. How would we ever get anything done without cats?
