Doris Christian-Bernhardt

Finding my passion for creative writing was after raising three daughters, and going to college at age 49 to earn a degree following a divorce. It was a stress reliever to come home after working in a busy AZ hospital to open my computer and write. Whether poetry, short stories or story poems, it soon became the highlight of my day. My first full-length novel took 8 years to write. Now as a great-grandmother, the joy of creating faith-based and adventurous tales is still my passion. Born and raised in NW Montana, and after living in many different states, I now reside in beautifully green Salem, OR with my husband Robert.
