Deb Elkink

Deb Elkink lives in a cottage beside a babbling creek in southern Alberta, Canada, a stone’s throw from the Montana border and home base for exotic travels with her husband of half a century. She published her first bits of writing after graduating university (BA Communications), then married and spent twenty years as a homeschooling mom and ranch wife—rounding up cattle, earning her private pilot’s license, and cooking for huge branding crews. A graduate degree (MA Theology, summa cum laude) led to publication of a literary study on the fiction of G.K. Chesterton (ROOTS AND BRANCHES), prepared her as an academic editor, and jettisoned her into her long-held dream of writing "literary fiction with a theological twist." Her tales, incorporating travel and taste buds and the tumults of the heart, include two award-winning novels (THE THIRD GRACE and THE RED JOURNAL) as well as a collection of short stories (VAGABOND COME HOME).
