ⓘ About Liz Tolsma
Liz Tolsma is a christian and historical fiction author that loves to say that is passionate about her writing, about God and about her family. She published her debut novel in 2011 and is glad that she gets to work her dream job every day. There is nothing she loves better than sitting in her comfortable office chair and letting her imagination run wild. Tolsma is also very much involved in the writing community and often helps aspiring authors hone their writing skills and embark on the journey to publishing. The reason she so loves her family perhaps has to do with the fact that she married her high school sweetheart and together they have three beautiful children that they adopted.
