edit data

Janetta Fudge-Messmer is an inspirational author, editor and speaker. Her Early Birds series (Early Birds, Southbound Birds, Girly Birds, and Blessing Birds) are Christian Comedies. They're fun reads and might make you want to hit the road in your own RV after you read them. Her novel, Chords of Love, is a Christian Historical Romance set in Central City, CO. In her latest book, Pigtails and a Tool Belt, comedy and romance are once again at work. Along with writing, Janetta also speaks at seminars, helping others to “Tell Your Story”. Janetta, her husband Ray, and precious pooch Maggie, are full-time RVers. Writing and travelling go hand in hand as they see the USA in their Winnebago. ...more
