A native of southern Illinois, Stephanie Grace Whitson has lived in Nebraska since 1975. She began what she calls "playing with imaginary
friends" (writing fiction) when, as a result of teaching her four homeschooled children Nebraska history, she was personally encouraged and
challenged by the lives of pioneer women in the West. Since her first book, Walks the Fire, was published in 1995, Stephanie's fiction titles
have appeared on the ECPA bestseller list numerous times and been finalists for the Christy Award, the Inspirational Reader's Choice Award, and
ForeWord Magazine's Book of the Year. Her first nonfiction work, How to Help a Grieving Friend, was released in 2005. In addition to serving in
her local church and keeping up with two married children, two college students, and a high school senior, Stephanie enjoys motorcycle trips with
her family and church friends. Her passionate interests in pioneer women's history, antique quilts, and French, Italian, and Hawaiian language and
culture provide endless story-telling possibilities. She has lived in Nebraska since 1975.
