edit data

N. Ford is a writer of book, blog, and song, and can usually be found in the open air, barefooted and with readily available mango.

Having lived the foundational seasons of life in Indiana and growing seasons of life in Florida, Nic exists somewhere between a midwesterner and a beach bum.

Nowadays, Nic is typically hiking or writing in the giant and gentle hills of South Nashville, Tennessee, but with the steady company of an oversized dog and something to write on, anywhere will do.

Defined by faith, fueled by tribe, and driven by purpose, N. Ford writes for all; and simultaneously, for just One.
