Howell Rogers is a seventeenth-century generation American. A native New Englander, she grew up sailing on Connecticut's Long Island Sound and vacationing on Massachusetts's Buzzards Bay. She obtained her education in life experiences as a co-owner of a retail building supply business and motherhood. She received her early formal education in Retail Management and later when her children left the nest, she obtained an undergraduate degree from Harvard University Extension with a focus on literature and humanities.
She received the Alice Abel Literary Award from the American Mothers National Literary Contest for her creative non-fiction, Family Matters, an honorable mention for her poem Legacy and was a finalist for the William Faulkner-William Wilson competition for her short fiction, Lucky Duck. More recently, she was a semi-finalist in the Royal Palm Literary Competition for her flash fiction, Management Dilemma. Currently, she lives in central Florida.
