About

Hi!  I’m Ramona, and I created this website because when I’m writing, I’m happy, and want to share my excitement about it with everyone!

Writing

[Scroll down to see my Publishing Credits]

I’ve enjoyed writing since I was about eleven years old, when I started making up stories about cats, typing poems on my mom’s typewriter, and got my first diary.

Books

It’s exciting when I find an especially inspiring, well-written book, and I just have to share about it!   I am especially attracted to OLD books where I find some of the best quality writing, plots and characters, even in those close to a hundred years old. 

Faith

How amazing that almighty God wants to walk with us humans, and give us an abundant life. I am a Christ-follower and have found that the more difficult life is, the more I talk to him, the more I know him, and the more I realize that all the Bible says is true. He is nearer to us than we can imagine, and is good, powerful, wise and the embodiment of love.  

Life

I grew up in Denver, Colorado, USA, and now live in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. I have a degree in Engineering Math, and most of my work experience has been engineering support and teaching support.  I am nice and close to a beautiful park and river with interesting wildlife at hand, and so happy to have my sons, daughter-in-law and grandchildren nearby.
