Linda Colwell

Linda Colwell believes that growing up in a small West Virginia town was the cocoon that nurtured her creativity. Her family relocated to Michigan's metropolitan Detroit area when she was sixteen and there, she was exposed to a new culture and developed additional sensitivities.

Writing was a small inner voice that whispered inside of her. One of her college English instructors said, "If you don't do something with your writing ability, I'll come back and haunt you."

When the small voice inside finally grew into a roar, she remembered the English professor's words. Linda studied creative writing, attended conferences, joined a local critique group and is a member of the RWA, the Greater Detroit RWA and the FTH online Chapter. After having several short pieces published, she now devotes her time to writing novels.

She resides in Royal Oak, Michigan, with her husband, John.
