Teresa got a grip on her story-telling zeal and brought her fictitious characters and their circumstances to life on the written page as an adult.. A degree in communication, a career in teaching and human service work, a calling to ministry, raising a family in rural Minnesota, and a couple of “go-arounds” with cancer have given her plenty of experiences on which to weave tales of real life trimmed with faith and hope.
Her first book, Tender Mercies for Tough Moments: A 31 Day Journey into the Blessings of God gives readers helpful guidance for a faith-filled life.
Whisper County was her first novel. With readers demanding more, it quickly became Book 1 in the Secrets of Souls River Series. Cloudburst County is Book 2 and Book 3 will be forthcoming soon. More information is available at https://tenelsonbooks.com.
When not writing or preaching, Teresa finds additional enjoyment playing games with her nine precious grandchildren, reading, hunting, fishing, and cooking a farm-house meal for the guests at her table. Of course, the dinner is followed by a piece of blueberry pie and a good cup of coffee. $2.99 on Kindle.
