Award winning, aspiring novelist, Jeanne Takenaka writes contemporary inspirational fiction that deals with real-life issues with a heart to draw women closer to God and to those around them. She lives near the mountains in Colorado with her amazing husband and two exuberant boy-men. She loves being God’s girl—always learning about His grace, hanging out with friends and enjoying a great cup of coffee. When she’s not writing you can find her with a camera in her hand, looking for #alittlebitofpretty in her days. She is a member of ACFW and My Book Therapy Voices.

POSTING SCHEDULE:
