Joseph Bruchac
Joseph Bruchac lives with his wife, Carol, in the Adirondack mountain foothills town of Greenfield Center, New York, in the same house where his maternal grandparents raised him. Much of his writing draws on that land and his Abenaki ancestry. Although his American Indian heritage is only one part of an ethnic background that includes Slovak and English blood, those Native roots are the ones by which he has been most nourished. He, his younger sister Margaret, and his two grown sons, James and Jesse, continue to work extensively in projects involving the preservation of Abenaki culture, language and traditional Native skills, including performing traditional and contemporary Abenaki music with the Dawnland Singers.

I draw inspiration for my Appalachian Mountain Mysteries series from my years living on a farm in the mountains of North Carolina. I made mistakes by the wheelbarrow-load, but I wouldn’t take anything for the experience. I met fascinating people who taught me so much, and you’ll get to meet them as this series follows the life of Abit Bradshaw from age 15 to 47 (and counting!), as he and his best friend, Della Kincaid, seek justice for those who need their help.
Hard to believe, but while on the farm near a town of only 200, I got my start as a writer. It launched a career that includes more than 1200 magazine -

KC sincerely believes that well-written Christian fiction can change lives. When a novel has strong Christian principals woven intricately into a well-written plot, the reader bonds with lifelike characters who struggle with trials, temptations, and struggles that the reader identifies with. The reader identifies with these characters because she’s been there. Everyone has fallen. That’s why everyone needs a Savior.
Then, when these same characters turn to Christ the Savior to bring them through these
