USMC veteran Linda Fulkerson became interested in writing while working as a copyeditor and typesetter at a small-town weekly newspaper. She has since been published in several magazines and newspapers, including a two-year stint as a sportswriter. Linda is the author of two novels, four novellas, and eight nonfiction books, four of which are coloring books for writers. In 2020, she purchased Mantle Rock Publishing’s backlist and founded Scrivenings Press LLC.
Linda is the former online editor of the Killeen Daily Herald and former director of digital services for the largest media group in Central Texas. Soon after returning to her home state of Arkansas in 2013, she launched her own digital services company, which focuses on helping authors, speakers, and small business owners develop an effective online presence. Her Ideas to Books brand offers coaching and self-publishing assistance for indie authors. She also owns a graphic design business, Book Marketing Graphics, which builds author websites, designs book covers, and produces video book trailers.
She and her husband, Don, live on a ten-acre plot in central Arkansas. They have four adult children plus a goddaughter, who have blessed them with thirteen grandchildren, two of whom are married. She and Don are part of an RV ministry group that travels to various locations around the United States, providing volunteer labor to small churches, church camps, children’s homes, and other organizations. When she’s not working or writing, Linda enjoys photography, travel, and spoiling her two dachshunds.
Linda speaks to small business owners and writers’ groups on a variety of marketing-related topics, such as blogging, social media management, and website development. To learn more about Linda, visit her website at LindaFulkerson.com.
