Hi Katherine, first, tell us a little about yourself. My husband and I have four sons and we love to travel and hike. I teach Agriculture at a school for children with special needs so my daily life involves lots of plants and animals and science. I like to read and garden and bake. Lots of writers were avid readers as children. What about you? If so, what did you read? Yes, definitely. I read a little of everything: Nancy Drew and Mandie mysteries, a lot of fantasy novels (Stephen Lawhead was my favorite). I gravitated toward adventure.  Tell us about your latest book.

  A Warm Welcome to Linda Weaver Clarke Linda introduces us to three stories about real  Women of Courage of their era created from her ancestors' true experiences.  Are Courageous Women in Stories More Interesting? Courageous women in stories seem to draw readers’ attention and grab their interest. The bravery and strength of character easily draws them into the story. It takes courage to stick up for one’s rights and defend one’s beliefs. During the 1840s, there were many brave women who fought against injustice and inequality. Many wanted to have a better education. These women made a difference and influenced others to make a better life for themselves.  A fairly new historical romance series was released that has received outstanding reviews on Amazon and Audible Audiobooks. It is called Women of Courage . In these novellas, the spunk and courage of these women seem to draw the readers into a world of adventure.  About The Light at the end of the Tunnel In The Light at the end

This month’s chocked full of $1.99 deals on Amazon, including novels by many Pelican Book Group authors.  I’m honored to have Cooking up a Mystery among them. (See below for a list of other authors to look for.) About Cooking up a Mystery Cooking up a Mystery combines a mystery with a touch of romance, humor, faith and forgiveness.  In the story, Laney Eskridge is on edge from emotional scars from her parents’ deaths and her husband’s infidelity and abandonment. Then she hears unexplained noises in her new tea house, and her anxiety is tripled. Add a budding romance with Eric—a guy with a fear of commitment—and it's all too much to handle. She cuts ties with Eric and works to make her business pay off, but he discovers she’s in danger and wants to help. Little could they know they would overhear a threat that could cause a national turmoil. Even though I come from a long line of Southern gourmet cooks, I didn’t think of writing a culinary book until I met a newspaper faith editor

Anguish -- Skye Jones has one goal for the summer—keep her father from taking away her convertible. That’s the only reason she agrees to work at her sister’s bridal shop in Boulder, Colorado, while she searches for a non-boring job. Why else would she have anything to do with weddings when she has no interest in marriage? Benjamin Smith somehow ended up as a groomsman in two weddings over the summer, so he’s spending a lot of time at Happily Ever After events. Falling for a blonde with no dreams of settling down wasn’t in his five-year plan, yet the more he sees Skye, the more he wants to figure her out. But all she sees him as is a boring attorney−her complete opposite. Besides, romance is supposed to be for Skye’s friends, not her. And she’s in Colorado to get a job, not a guy. Right? (Contemporary
