Influenced by books like The Secret Garden and The Little Princess, Lisa Karon Richardson's early stories were heavy on boarding schools and creepy houses. Now, even though she's (mostly) grown-up she still loves a healthy dash of adventure in any story she creates, even her real-life story. She's been a missionary to the Seychelles and Gabon and now that she and her husband are back in America, they are tackling a new adventure, starting a church plant. Lisa is the author of several published novellas and novels. You can find her online at www.lisakaronrichardson.com and www.inkwellinspirations.com
