A place for good books.

Rhonda Hanson

Rhonda Hanson is one of a pair of twins, the youngest of ten siblings, raised on Black Bayou in Louisiana. For much of her childhood, she lived without the luxuries of indoor plumbing and electricity and, growing up without the Internet, devices, or television, she was left to discover the exciting worlds that can only be discovered within the pages of a good book.

She is a collector of vintage children's books, and is not embarrassed to admit that she will reread the same book over and over, if it makes her happy. Her own imagination began to be challenged at an early age, and she would pen practically anything and everything that fermented in her mind, much of which is sadly lost or left back in her youth, probably in some old trunk in someone's barn.

Today, Rhonda is a novelist, recording artist, songwriter, musician and speaker, but her most crowning achievement is being "Grammy" to her two granddaughters. She spends her days in middle Tennessee, writing, convincing feral cats that the Hanson Hotel is open for business, bragging to anyone who will listen about her grandchildren and tearing all her MacBooks apart and rebuilding them, because of her stubborn refusal to upgrade.

Her first completed novel is "Father's Choice", which is book one of the Father series, that also includes "Father's Wings" (book two) and "Father's Song" (book three). "Father's Friend", although not included in the series, is a linked novel, that takes the reader back before it all began, but that the author believes is best enjoyed after reading the series.

Other works by Rhonda Hanson include "The Master of Hawthorn Manor", "Buying The Farm", "Once Upon An Altar", "The Art Of Letting Go", and her latest release, "Dancing to an Elegy for Eden".

Rhonda is also the author of a children's book, "The Adventures Of Pahwoo And Her Friends", which is the narrative of an ongoing bedtime story she regularly told her grandchildren, for a period of over seven years.
