Hello, I’m Linda
I’m a former New Englander who landed in the Midwest after raising four sons with my husband — and traded an empty nest for a Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing. I write novels about faith, family, and second chances, because I still believe stories are built brick by brick, one honest sentence at a time.
