Don't miss Living Inspired on Thursday at 3:00 pm Central! (To listen to the show, just follow this link and click on the player in the upper right corner of the screen.) We'll be interviewing author and Senior Acquisitions Editor at B&H Publishing, Karen Ball. I will be working with Karen as I write the books in my new Amish series.
Karen Ball has always loved stories. She considers it a gift that for the last twenty-five-plus years she's been able, both as an author and an editor, to use that love to bring wonderful novels to readers.
Karen the Editor:
Currently the Senior Acquisitions Editor for B&H Publishing Group, Karen learned her craft while heading up fiction for Tyndale House Publishers, Multnomah Publishers, and Zondervan.
She loves the synergy of editing, and the chance to come alongside authors and help them craft the very best novels they can. "My job as an editor is to come alongside the author and serve. And I love that!"
Another inexplicable blessing is the fact that she's been allowed to work with a number of notable authors, including Francine Rivers, Karen Kingsbury, Gilbert Morris, Liz Curtis Higgs, Angela Elwell Hunt, Robin Jones Gunn, Terri Blackstock, Lt. Col. Oliver North, and Lori Copeland.
Karen the Author:
Karen's latest full-length novel, What Lies Within, has been nominated as the Best Inspirational Novel of the Year. Readers regularly call Karen's writing powerful, uplifting, and fun. She writes from her home in Oregon, where she lives with her husband, Don, and their two "kids": Dasha, a mischievous 4-month-old Siberian husky, and Dakota, an Aussie-Terrier mix that should have been named Psycho.
Next to working with words, Karen's greatest joys are playing with her dogs, laughing, savoring nature and wildlife, and finding wonder in everyday life. For more about Karen and her books, please visit her website: www.karenballbooks.com!
