With the release of her first book, "Ashley's Unforgettable Summer," Grace Reddick has joined the rank of published authors. She has collected friends and memories along the way. She say's enduring friendships play an important role in her life.
Grace was born and grew up in Savannah, GA and moved to Ellabell, GA in 1970. She is a born again child of God, and has been a member of Faulkville Baptist Church since 1995.
She is a member of the International Society of Poets, a member of The Christian Pen, a member of Authors Den and is also a member of CWTR (Christian Women Take Root).
Grace has donated books to all the school's and libraries she has been invited to. She wants children to have access to the book, and believes that reading is a vital part of learning.
Grace has always loved to write for her own pleasure. She began to journal many years ago, and found it to bring healing for her mind and spirit. It also enabled her to seek and express her inner self.
Grace has written poetry for the local paper, as well as articles and poetry upon request. She had always admired writers, and hoped that one day she would be able to achieve that same prestige . After a short period she put her writings aside for several years. She wasn't quite sure why, maybe the timing wasn't right. Last year Grace realized that she should pursue the talent that God had given her. She once again began to create a story, populate it with characters, and act out the ideas that were buzzing around in her head.
This is Grace's first book, but certainly not her last. After she complete's the book she is currently working on, Forsaken Land,she plan's to venture out and write on a personal level. Grace wants to reach out to comfort, encourage and uplift. God has blessed her in this area as well. This is a ministry, a calling in which she feels that she must acknowledge. She will also continue to write for children. However, through Journaling, she has become more confident in writing and will use it as a guide for her new life. Not only to transition but to make sense of the change.
She give's the glory to the Lord Jesus Christ for providing an outlet for herself, as well as the imagination and desire to bring laughter into the lives of children. Grace strongly believes that it is never too late to follow your dream.
