Here is a bit about Beth Durkee
When Beth is not writing, you’ll likely find her playing with her little dog, conversing on the phone with family and friends who are like family or educating herself through video content in her favorite "comfy" spot in Wisconsin, surrounded by the quiet stillness that allows her imagination run wild or, often, to hear those "quiet callings" she often writes about. Her inspiration frequently strikes in the middle of the night—or during a hot shower—where the physical relaxation helps clear the space for new ideas. She favors writing "short reads" for her heavier Christian fiction because she wants her books to feel like a manageable experience that meets readers exactly where they are, and also standard-length "cozy" (of course) mysteries.

For women’s religious fiction: authentic faith journeys, emotional honesty, uplifting endings.
For kids/YA: age-appropriate language and themes, hope-filled arcs, no graphic content.
For cozy: closed-door, low-violence mysteries with satisfying solutions.
Beth Durkee (born 1969) is an American author and inspirational personality. Her message is that God is with us through all of life's hardships. Until a mysterious medical condition deprived her of the use of her right hand, she specialized in handwritten short reads for the Christian market that brought awareness to God’s whispered presence in our daily lives.
