About Karen H. Phillips
In March, 2006, God led me back to something I'd always loved--writing. From conferences to online groups to the local writers guild, I embrace every day as a new opportunity to grow and learn.

Our kids find that Mom has a life after all. My husband's love and support in this writing venture has proved invaluable.
