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.

I’ve really enjoyed the Gulf Coast Chronicles series so far, so I’m (a bit impatiently) looking forward to The Magnolia Duchess. It was also nice to find out that there are more books to explore, as I hadn’t thought to look for any under the name Elizabeth White!
What part of Alabama is your home? I live in Tuscaloosa, Roll Tide!!
This series sounds fascinating–just my type of stories. Would love to read them!
