Kay Turnbaugh

After publishing and editing the weekly newspaper in Nederland, Colorado, for 27 years, I began writing books. I’ve lived in the Rocky Mountains all my life, and I've always been fascinated by what makes the West, the West. People, scenery, and history all play their parts, and I’ve engaged, enjoyed, and researched the West for as long as I can remember. From my back deck, I watch deer, elk, moose, bobcats, hawks, owls, hummingbirds, and the occasional stray dog. I love it here, and that’s probably why it’s what I write about.
