Delores grew up in Washington and Oregon but also spent many adult years in western Canada. Grade school teachers encouraged her writing, and she loves to encourage and mentor other writers now. She earned college degrees via scholarships and interesting jobs. Many summers she worked for the Forest Service in both the U.S. and Canada. She enjoys wild life, jewelry-making (including using porcupine quills), photography, and gives convincing moose calls. She teaches online and on-campus at the Univ. of Northwestern—St. Paul (MN) while enjoying dividing her time between Minnesota and Northeastern Mississippi. Travel may be her favorite means of learning.
Delores is a college teacher, speaker, and freelance writer with over 360 publications besides providing editing and publishing services. Her writings are found in Aglow, Angels on Earth, Today’s Christian, Family Life Today, the Minnesota Christian Chronicle (later the Christian Examiner and Refreshed Magazines), and Revell, Guideposts, and James Stuart Bell compilation books.
Her books and projects are represented by Julie Gwinn of The Seymour Agency.
