About Christine Jones
Christine Jones teaches high school literature and writing, holds a B.A. in broadcast journalism, and lives 30 minutes from Mark Twain's birthplace in Northeast Missouri. She's worked as a radio anchor and reporter, a classical education instructor, and a home school teacher. She crafted stories under the covers with a flashlight when she was supposed to be going to bed in grade school and has continued writing ever since.
She hopes to use stories to encourage those who are wrestling with trauma and grief. When she's not teaching and writing, she loves to read stories aloud to her six grandchildren.
