Each Sunday “Inspired by Life…and Fiction” shares with our readers a Christian novelist’s newest book and the garden spots where they find inspiration.
Award-winning inspirational romance author, Brenda Coulter, writes heartwarming love stories from a Christian perspective. She didn’t catch the writing bug until she was almost 45, but she’s been making up for lost time since, winning the HOLT Medallion and Romantic Times Readers Choice Award, as well as being a RITA Award finalist. Happily married for over three and-a-half decades, Brenda is also the mother of two twenty-something sons. She gardens in Zone 5. Visit Brenda on the web at www.brendacoulter.com.

DEBORAH RANEY's first novel, A Vow to Cherish, inspired the World Wide Pictures film of the same title and launched Deb’s writing career. Forty books later, she's still creating stories that touch hearts and lives. Her novels have won RWA's RITA Award, the ACFW Carol Award, the National Readers Choice Award, and the HOLT Medallion. She is also a three-time Christy Award finalist. Deb is on faculty for several national writers’ conferences and served on the executive board of the 2,500-member American Christian Fiction Writers organization for 18 years before retiring in 2022. She is a recent transplant to Missouri, having moved with her husband, Ken Raney, from their native Kansas to be closer to kids and grandkids. They love road trips, e-biking, Friday garage sale dates, and breakfast on the screened porch overlooking their wooded backyard.
