She was born in the high desert of New Mexico, grew up in the mountains of Northern California, has lived most of her married life on the islands of Washington, and had a grand 4-year adventure of living in a rural community nested between the badlands and mountains in Wyoming. She has an insatiable love for learning and also enjoys photography, any form of art, and the outdoors. She believes that every day is not only a gift from God, but an adventure as well. Her love for the Lord and creative imagination all converged when the Lord inspired her to write the Parepidimos Series. Read More Read Less
