Elizabeth Stiles (Jeri Weems) is a retired teacher, avid reader, mother of hounds, and lover of all creatures great and small. She caught the writing bug in 4th grade when her teacher helped her publish Fin, her first picture book. Even though its pages were blue construction paper, the book was filled with her words and illustrations, igniting her passion for writing.
She has recently launched her debut novel, Safe Haven – Where Hope Lives about a young girl who has extraordinary abilities to communicate with animals. While she stuggles with one mysterious illness after another, her father must face his greatest fear to safeguard his daughter, whose innocence and talent have forever altered his life.
