edit data

Born in Kansas and born again at age six, Robynn wrote stories for her own amusement for the next thirty years. When a job as a foster care caseworker became too stressful and a career with a floral trade magazine became too comfortable, her thoughts turned to writing an actual book. Success led to success, and she completed a second novel. Robynn, aka Ranunculus Turtle, lives in Kansas with two cats and her vicious garden, The Swamp.
