I am now 31 and I'm from Long Beach, California. My daughter, Adara is my life. She is 12 and as busy as I am! In my life I have been through the ringer and back and have endured some of the same things I write about. The rest comes from my imagination that is really a voice in my head that talks to me. I just sit back and let my fingers be the recorder. Because one must always be persistent and always strive in the mist of adversity, after years of struggling as a single parent, I'm happy to say I have a Bachelors of Art Degree from California State University Dominguez Hills in Literature and Communications. And of course a novel in stores! God is good!

Writing has always been a passion of mine. I tried to write my first book when I was 9 and have been going ever since. I strive to write stories with powerful characters, that are in conceviable as well as inconceviable circumstances that have the reader tripping out and turning the page so fast they end up getting a paper cut! I also strive to write stories that people can relate to, stories that give hope.

 I currently work as a Probation Officer with youth, which gives me the opportunity to share the challenges I faced in life and use the wisdom and faith I have acquired from those challenges to help as well as inspire them. Life is about lighting the torch, not just for yourself but for someone else. Having my book in stores has been a dream come true. I thank each and every person who went out and purchased my book! Feel free to contact me info@authorkarenwilliams.com! Thanks again for stopping by!
