Biographical Information

Julia Rose was born and raised in the Southwest. She lived the early part of her married life in Santa Fe, New Mexico then later moved to Phoenix, Arizona along with her husband Ken and two small children. Now, for inspiration, Julia draws upon her adventures in life and from those she holds most dear, her children and grandchildren. She truly believes in the old saying "write what you know."

The Gift Keepers is her gift to all the children of the world, be they young or old. Julia has numerous poems and short stories to her credit, but The Gift Keepers is her first published book, but you can count on it not being her last. She and Ken continue to enjoy their lives in the valley of the sun. Whether she is working, hiking or writing, she "thanks God for His many benefits."
