Now, meet our Winter Wonders authors!

Muncy Chapman

Good morning. My name is Muncy Chapman. I’m a Florida native living in Vero Beach with my husband of over fifty years. Herb and I spend much of our time traveling to research Florida history for our historical novels.

I’ve authored seven inspirational romances, and I am a statewide speaker for Christian Women’s Clubs. I travel all over the state of Florida to share my testimony.

My hobbies are playing the piano, reading, and sewing, but my greatest joy is my family. Besides a one-in-a-million husband, I have four grown children who all live in Florida, and twelve grandchildren.

For as long as I can remember, I’ve always liked to write. I love it when I hear back from some of my readers. I hope you will visit my website and send me your comments: www.muncychapman.com

Meg Allison

As an only child, Meg Allison spent her childhood creating worlds and characters to populate them. It’s amazing how sheer boredom can spark the imagination. Writing those stories down became a necessity when her own identity began to vanish in the daily shuffle of life with five home-schooled children, a husband, and several assorted pets all clamoring for attention.

Meg is a graduate of the University of Charleston with a bachelor’s degree in Mass Communications. In a former life, she worked as a reporter for a large newspaper in Charleston, WV, and is thrilled to have given up power suits for pajamas.

Cindy Green

Cindy K. Green, although a California native, now resides in North Carolina with her husband and two young sons. Growing up, she loved reading and writing; but her heart always lay in teaching. After graduating from college with a degree in history, Cindy taught Jr. High in just about every subject. She currently stays home and writes as well as homeschools her children. She loves reading, photography, Period Drama, scrapbooking, and spending time with family. She writes Contemporary, Suspense, Inspirational, and Historical – from sweet to sensual.

JoAnn Carter

Hi! My name is JoAnn Carter. I live in Vermont with my wonderful husband of 15 years, four children, and the best dog in the world...Ginger. I love to be with my family & friends, write, read, and cook. I'm a Licensed Practical Nurse, but currently I'm not working in the medical field. Rather, to be home with my children, I've chosen to work as a substitute teacher, which I fully enjoy.

By The Book, my first inspirational novella was released January 2007 through By Grace Publishing. I've also has written a few magazine articles published through Breakaway Magazine and Country Woman.

Upcoming releases include: Smuggler of the Heart- Winter Wonders Anthology through By Grace Publishing December 21, 2007 and Mr. Beckman’s Secretary scheduled to be released March 2008.

I'd love to hear from you. Please visit me @
