About the author

AFTER 21 YEARS on her first domain, Barbara opened her all-new “Barbara Brabec’s World” in November 2021. Self-employed at home for most of her working life, it features her memoirs, eBooks, earlier trade books, and a rich archive of timeless articles, Brabec Bulletins, and Christian posts.

When widowed in 2005 after nearly 44 years of marriage to Harry Brabec, she reinvented herself as a writer, editor, self-publisher, and author’s consultant. After publishing two biographical memoirs in 2010 and 2017 and later presenting a series of life-writing workshops, she began to write only about LIFE and all the surprises, challenges, opportunities, and adventures it holds for everyone who is striving to live life fully, joyfully, and abundantly.

This fall, Barbara will publish Call of the Heart: A Rescue Dog’s Dream, a sequel to her memoir, The Drummer Drives, Everybody Else Rides. Her complete Bio, along with details about all her books, can be found at BarbaraBrabecProductions, where she continues to share insights, stories, and reflections drawn from a lifetime of writing, publishing, and living fully.
