I'm an author and speaker from Spokane, Washington. I write Historical fiction from events in American History and the lives of those who lived in our nation's past. My debut novel is Emancipated Heart, a story about a family living in a Japanese American internment camp during WWII. My passion for history started when, as a kid, my father would stop at every roadside historical marker and every small town museum as we traveled on vacations. And my love of writing makes a good combination for great stories. I love to speak to women's groups and writer's groups. I also speak at writers' conferences. I belong to the American Christian Fiction Writers, Northwest Christian Writers, My Book Therapy, and several online groups dealing with writing or WW2 topics. I also enjoy helping other writers in their journey, whether through teaching or providing events of interest to them.Please visit my website and sign up for my newsletter and/or blog to receive a free booklet titled What to Do While You're Waiting to Be Published. www.jancline.net/subscribe/
