Each Sunday “Inspired by Life…and Fiction” shares a Christian novelist’s newest book and the garden spots where they find inspiration.

RITA and Carol award nominee Kathleen Y’Barbo is the author of more than forty novels, novellas, and young adult books. Her books are currently in print in the US and abroad, and have been translated into Dutch, German, and Spanish, to name a few. A tenth-generation Texan, Kathleen has four children of her own as well as seven bonus kids she gladly inherited when she married her own hero in combat boots. Kathleen is proud to be a military wife, even if it did mean giving up her Texas drivers license. She and her husband, Robert, now live and garden in the Sooner State. Find out more about Kathleen at www.kathleenybarbo.com.

  1. Love that Kathleen has her sweet tea on her desk. 😉 As Southern as I am, I can’t drink it. I have to halve it with unsweetened tea. In many restaurants, it’s like drinking syrup. Cringe!!!
