Jodi Heaton Hurst spends her time as a writer, a teacher, a speaker, and a wannabe artist. She lives in Oklahoma, a terrific place for someone to live who loves the American South Central region. Her four children, their husbands and wife, and thirteen grandchildren live nearby. Jodi's own mother and father, who are 88 and 90 years of age, live just a few hours away. Merry Tilda is her debut story for children. One Wild Wind, her second children's book, will be released next. Visit her on her website, www.jodiheatonhurst.com.
