Linda had a career in nursing and turned to writing after retirement. She began writing short stories that featured her grandchildren and developed her stores into full length novels. She enjoys fishing on the lake, gardening and reading.

Linda grew up on an isolated farm in Virginia where her only outlet for the outside world was reading. Linda graduated from Virginia Baptist Hospital School of Nursing, holds a bachelor’s degree from The College of New Jersey, and a master’s degree from Seton Hall University. She retired from a long career in nursing to live on a lake in South Carolina. After several episodes of life-threatening illnesses, she decided to write her stories for the grandchildren so they could know what was important to her in the years to come In addition to writing, she enjoys reading, fishing on the lake, and spending time with her grandchildren who show up in thinly-veiled characters in her books.

Linda spends time mentoring younger women through small group Bible Studies at her church and the local job Corp for homeless women. She has written devotionals for christiandevotions.us.

Linda has five books in print: The Healer, My Sister My Twin, Seven Minutes into Darkness, Love is and Lest We Forget: Survival of a Cherokee Woman. Each book shares the gospel story woven into the fabric of the story with no preacher words or phrases. Her next book is still on the drawing board.
