Inspired by Life ... and Fiction

Novelists bound by the pen, sisterhood, & more

The Plot Thickens|Nancy Moser

April 19, 2015 By Deborah Raney

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

NANCY MOSER is the best-selling author of twenty-five novels, including Love of the Summerfields, Christy Award winner, Time Lottery; Christy finalist Washington’s Lady; and historical novels Mozart’s Sister, The Journey of Josephine Cain, and Masquerade. Nancy has been married for forty years—to the same man. She and her husband have three grown children and five grandchildren, and live in the Midwest. She’s been blessed with a varied life. She’s earned a degree in architecture; run a business with her husband; traveled extensively in Europe; and has performed in various theatres, symphonies, and choirs. She knits voraciously, kills all her houseplants, and can wire an electrical fixture without getting shocked. She is a fan of anything antique—humans included.

When it comes to her Kansas garden, Nancy says, “I’m not really an outdoor person when it’s hot, so my favorite way to look at the garden is from my office windows! That’s where I’ve been able to see the butterflies and spiderwebs on the flowers. And the beautiful sky.” More about Nancy at www.nancymoser.com.

Nancy’s office has a corner view of the beautiful Kansas countryside.

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.

    Oh, to have that corner view of the Kansas countryside! It inspires me to try to create a special “room with a view” for reading and dreaming.
