JAN CLINE is a firm believer in late bloomers. She began her writing journey at a young age, but didn’t venture into fiction writing until 2009 when a friend dared her to write a novel. Her love for relics and history pointed her to America’s untold stories of the 1930s and 40s, and her first published novel, Emancipated Heart, tells the story of a Japanese-American family living in an internment camp during WW2.

For Jan, researching is just as fun as putting pen to paper, especially when it requires travel to places she’s never been. Her current women’s fiction series, American Dreams, takes readers from the dust bowl years of America’s heartlands through WW2.

In addition to her creative writing credits, which include feature articles, devotionals, anthologies, and a women’s self-help book, Jan has served as a writers conference director and enjoys teaching at conferences and writers groups.

Jan lives in northern Idaho with her husband and spoiled dog. Connect with Jan online at: jancline.net
