Toni Teepell

Toni Teepell's life in Louisiana greatly influenced the writing of her first novel, A Truth Worth Tellin'. At the age of thirty-five, she graduated from Louisiana State University and began a career in education. Thirteen years later, she enrolled in writing classes with a dream to write a novel. A Truth Worth Tellin' is the result of that dream.

Toni and husband, Charlie, now live in Houston, Texas. They have three children, one grandson and a second grandson due April.
