She started writing her first novel in 2001 at the age of 10 and completed it at 600 pages!

Dawnita Fogleman is a fifth generation Oklahoma Panhandle Pioneer. Dawnita helps the love of her life manage the family business, small farm, and six amazing, exclusively homeschooled blessings. The oldest two are graduated and starting their own businesses. "Sometimes I struggle with carrying Bible, coffee, sewing basket, and feed bucket all at the same time so I commit the Bible to my heart, sip my coffee fast, sew every chance I get, delegate chores, and disciple the children along the way."
