Gates has six grandchildren, who inspired her to write her stories. Soon, it became a labor of love toward all children searching for heroes and heroines with whom they could identify, through the trials and tribulations of Brady Barrett and six friends. And, my goodness, secret portals, talking cats, dragons, friendships, adventure and danger...what more could a kid ask for? Her secret ambition for many years was to write stories that would let children know how much their Heavenly Father loves them. She feels her experiences from a childhood she remembers quite well, as a teenager, a married mother of three and then a grandmother of six and the lessons learned from those experiences well qualifies her to write books and books and more books for young people: books which tell of God's love and that He can be trusted, if they will stick with Him.
J. F. (Joan or Joni, to her friends) was born in Halifax, England, and at the age of two, she and her mother immigrated to the United States. She has always been a 'country girl', even though she's had to live in town part of her life. She loves animals, particularly cats, horses and (sometimes) dogs. She also enjoys visiting her children and grandchildren, writing (of course), camping, and craft fairs. She gives all the glory to her Lord Jesus for any success she may have in getting her books into the hands of children, and, yes, adults. We live in perilous times, and everyone needs a hero or a heroine whom they can trust to show them the way to Jesus and God's Kingdom.view less
