Cinda Bauman

Cinda Jo Bauman is the author of Shuffle (formerly Only My Horses Know) and Fetch, the first two books in the Hope and Horses middle-grade series. The third installment, Gallop, is coming soon. A passionate cut paper artist, Cinda created the cover art for all three books and dreams of illustrating one of her own children’s picture books in the future.

She also enjoys painting in oil and acrylic, and finds joy in her creative pursuits. Now retired, Cinda treasures time spent with her husband, Greg, enjoys weekly visits with her daughter, Brittany, and delights in quiet moments with two lazy dogs curled up on her lap.

Her favorite travel destination is the Lowcountry of South Carolina, where she indulges in fresh seafood, long beach walks, and birdwatching. Cinda is deeply grateful to God for the beauty in her life and the many prayers that have been answered.
