Hello, Reader! I'm so glad you are here! 

​

If we haven't met yet, I'm Naomi. I've been a bookworm for as long as I can remember. I started writing stories when I was about seven-years-old, and I've been writing ever since. My debut novel, Shadow among Sheaves, is a retelling of the story of Ruth and Boaz, set in the Victorian period, and released with Barbour Publishing in 2019. My second biblical retelling, The Scarlet Ribbon, sets the story of Rahab during the American Revolution and released with WhiteFire Publishing in February of 2025.

 

In 2024, I jumped genres and released my first 1950s murder mystery, The Burning of Rosemont Abbey, with Bethany House Publishers, which will be followed in the summer of 2026 with a manor house mystery called Don't Upstage the Body. 

 

I read across many genres. Fantasy. Young Adult. Historical. The classics. I'm especially fond of broody British literature, characters who lovingly vex one another, and sinister murder plots, but only if the detective is witty or quirky enough to make me laugh along the way.  

 

Beyond the screen, I'm a homebody at heart. I love reading to my children. I love cooking with my husband, who has spent more than fifteen years making me laugh as we move about the kitchen together. I find keen enjoyment in planning birthday parties. I also drink a lot of tea & coffee, and I bake a LOT of scones. Sometimes I use said scone-baking to procrastinate when I should probably be editing instead. It's all part of my "process."

 

I always love hearing from readers, so feel free to reach out if you have any bookish questions. I can't thank you enough for visiting and for taking the time to read!

​

Blessings to you in Christ,
