Linda Garner

Linda Kay Garner is the author of Some Secrets Hurt, a picture book designed to prevent sexual abuse, and cofounder of the No More Secrets Foundation, an organization which strives to prevent child abuse and to promote healing for abuse victims. Linda’s passion is making a difference, which is why she often writes about subjects that most intelligent writers avoid. She volunteers for everything and sometimes feels overwhelmed. She practices saying “no” in the mirror, but rarely says it in real life.

Linda's husband and best friend, Marshall Garner, live in Sandy, Utah. Both grew up in Idaho. They are the parents of seven children, and also have twenty grandchildren (soon to be twenty one) and three great grandchildren. They are too young to have great grandchildren, but that is a story for another day.

Linda enjoys music, reading, hiking, biking, and spending time with her grandchildren. She cooks and sews when absolutely necessary. She enjoys public speaking and give presentations on self-worth, writing, reading, bullying, and sexual abuse. She loves visiting schools and giving writing workshops.
