Elisabeth Carson-Williams

Inspired by her students, and her fervent love of travel, Elisabeth

Carson-Williams thrives on meeting new people and hearing their stories.

This, coupled with her own desire to understand her family’s history,

led her to write historical fiction, to capture the themes and voices of

those not found in a textbook. “Ricochet", her short story in Feisty Deeds:

Historical Fictions of Daring Women anthology, is about the quiet battles

women fight in order to survive, and how one person’s actions can ricochet

through multiple generations. Castaway on the Isle of Devils is her first

young adult novel.
