Writing has been Doyle's livelihood. For over five years, she wrote sermons as she was a pastor with The Salvation Army. Following her marriage to her husband, Ron, she began writing about the culture shock she experienced as a city woman moving to the farm. She and Ron a son, Tim. Currently, they have two grand-dogs and 2 grand-cats (that we know of). Doyle was a copy-writer for a small radio station. In 1995 she returned to her original vocation as a pastor in The United Methodist Church. In her "spare time," Doyle wrote fiction and essays which often found its way into her sermons.
