Ida lives in the Pacific Northwest where she’s spent countless hours camping, fishing, hiking, snow skiing, photographing, and generally enjoying nature. Besides spending time in the great outdoors, Ida enjoys scrapbooking, reading, travel, art, gardening, history, and spending time with her husband, Rick, two kids, and a crazy dog named Taz.

Ida graduated from Lewis-Clark State College in 2008 as an English major with a creative writing emphasis. Even though she’s written articles for various magazines and websites, her first love is fiction. Ida writes character driven stories about people with jagged journeys, often from a historical setting. Because she enjoys reading stories with unexpected twists and turns that also teach her about other cultures, time periods, and personalities, Ida’s stories show the jagged journeys our lives can sometimes take.

In 2014 Ida published her first issue of "Jagged Journeys", an e-zine offering free short stories to subscribers. To learn more about "Jagged Journeys" visit Ida’s website at idasmithbooks.com.
