Lydia Wiebe

Lydia Wiebe grew up in a close-knit Mennonite community where she learned the importance of family and faith. Her brothers always told her that girls couldn’t climb trees, so of course, she climbed them anyway. Between hiding out in her secret tree hideaway, practicing piano,and creating her own imaginary adventures, she quickly discovered she had a knack for storytelling. She wrote her first collection of stories when she was twelve and hasn’t stopped writing since, though now without all the misspellings and cheesy story lessons.

When she’s not writing, Lydia loves spending time with her family, finding cozy coffee shops, and trying to balance going on adventures with wanting to stay indoors and reading.
