Hi Jodie, Lots of writers were avid readers as children. What about you? If so, what did you read?
Most definitely. I loved reading Peanuts books whenever a new one came out. I also read the Little House on the Prairie series, Trixie Beldon series, Nancy Drew, and so many more.
Why do you write?
I write because it’s something I feel God has called me to do.
Tell us about your latest book.
After twenty years of living along the trail as a deputy U.S. Marshal, Joshua Walker takes a job as sheriff in Burrton Springs, Kansas so he can be closer to his sister. Only problem, she no longer requires his protecting so he’s unsure of his next step.
Annie McPherson needs a change after the death of her father. She accepts a position as schoolmarm, hoping her past won’t catch up with her. Life is good, except for the pesky sheriff who continues to question her ability to adjust to life in the west and creates confrontations at every turn.
When the irritating schoolteacher’s past and present collide, dragging him into the turmoil, Josh has to decide who he’s willing to defend.

What do you love about this book? And what do you hope readers will tell others about it?
I love that this heroine is completely opposite of the one I wrote about in the first book of my Burrton Springs Brides series. I hope readers will enjoy the story and tell others but most importantly, I pray they are encouraged to walk in the calling God has given them.
What themes do you write about?
While I try to instill hope in each of my stories, the theme often revolves around something God is either teaching me or has taught me.
Are you a plotter or a pantzer?
Chuckle. It depends on the project. Sometimes I’m more of a plotter, other times more of a pantzer. Does that make me a plotzer? :)
Does your faith affect your writing? If so, how?
Most definitely. My faith is a part of my daily life, so it naturally is part of my writing process.
Do you put yourself in your books?
There’s always a little bit of me in my books, but I won’t tell you which parts. :)
What are you working on right now?
I’m working on the next book in this series, currently titled Wooing Gertrude.
Do you have any advice for aspiring writers?
Trust God and His timing. Both of my books in this series were written years ago. God brought about publishing in His time schedule, not mine.
What would you be doing if you weren’t writing?
I’d either be reading, knitting, hanging out with my husband, or walking.
