“Words mean things.” It’s one of my husband’s favorite sayings. I love words and how they fit together so beautifully to paint a picture in my mind. I’ve always loved to read, but a few years ago I rediscovered a love of writing. So now I’m not only a wife, mother of 8, a woodworker, and a tax accountant. I’m also a writer. Who knew?
D. Ogden Huff is a sun addict who moved to Arizona at the age of two. She’s lived there ever since, except for a two-year stint in Utah where she discovered that she gets cold just looking at pictures of snow. Thankfully, she lives in sunny Phoenix with the man of her dreams and a house often full of kids. They are the funniest people she knows and, with them, a dinner table can be a dangerous place where the threat of choking while laughing is always a possibility.
