edit data

April was born and raised in Magnolia, Texas. She is happily married with two amazing children. A lot has changed over the years since her first attempt at writing.

Now, April dedicates her life to serving Jesus and encouraging the body of Christ. She's a homeschooling mama, a home church leader, and also a mom of four cats and a dog. She and her family live a minimalist life in an RV nestled in the forest.

So, if you come across her old novels she asks you to realize that these were written before she submitted everything she is to the Lord. Everything new (2021 or newer) is safe and edifying to the body.

She hopes you enjoy her new Bible study notebook series. Blessings to you and yours! ...more
