A.H. is the daughter of a published children's author. She credits her love of writing and reading to her mother. Her strongest early encouragement came from a language arts teacher, Ms. Brenda C, from Huntingdon, TN. She begin writing at thirteen and keeping her writing locked away in a family trunk until recently. Her husband stumbled across them and set the stage for a writer's intervention. Through this supportive meeting with friends and family, she followed a long time dream. Her sister and a close friend, she lovingly refers to as The Dragon Lady were the two driving forces pushing her to update and publish her novels. Sins of the Father is her first offering and leap of faith into the creative realm. It is a novel very close to her heart and soul. Her niece, Alyssa Berrios, shared the journey with her as the cover artist. A. H. resides in North Alabama with her husband and constant feline companion, Amunet. She is a strong supporter of our military, cancer research, child abuse victims rights, domestic victims rights. When she is isn't writing, she can be found enjoying the magic pull to the water's edge, the whisper of the forest, or the gentle beckoning of mountains. She enjoys spending time with her family and friends cooking and enjoying life.
