I stumbled into writing after retiring to pursue a new venture. Since I started writing, I am now convinced that writing is God’s purpose for my life. I am joy-filled, peaceful and enthusiastic as I write – filled with the same emotions my characters are experiencing, and asking God to equip me with the capability to express those emotions through the story. My prayer is that readers will be blessed with an enjoyable, encouraging, inspiring and satisfying story.
Bonnie is a mother, grandmother, mentor, and writer, who resides in the Houston, Texas area where writing is her second career. She is surprised that God has called her into a writing ministry, but knows She is also a retired Community Relations Consultant who resides in the Houston, Texas area. She is a graduate of Arkansas A.M. & N. College, Pine Bluff, Arkansas (which has since become the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff).
She writes from a foundation of Christian principles from the Word of God, life experiences and observations. Her stories are centered around real relative life issues that readers can easily identify with. She is driven by a heartfelt desire to encourage, inspire and motivate others to keep looking to Jesus, who is the Author and Finisher of their faith. Her stories ring with the fundamental message and assurance that when a chapter closes in our lives, we can trust God for a new beginning because in Him there is always a hope and a future.
In addition to writing, and the numerous tasks associated with a writing career, Bonnie serves in her church, volunteers, and recently began a fulfilling endeavor as mentor and coach to a group of aspiring writers and others who just want to be inspired to pursue their God-given gifts.
Bonnie’s debut novel, “Seasons”, was released in October, 2005. It has made several best-seller lists, and has been a blessing to countless readers - many of whom admit to reading the book over and over. She expects no less from her recently released, stirring novel, Now and Then, Again. She is prayerful that her subsequent books will have the same effect.
