ML WOODS was born and raised in Afton, Oklahoma, and now lives a few miles away in the small town of Bluejacket, Oklahoma. Woods was privileged to have had God-fearing parents who taught the ways of the Lord by example. When not writing or serving the community as an employee of the State of Oklahoma, she enjoys spending time with her three children. Tragedy struck her home in 2015 when her husband passed suddenly from a stroke at the age of forty-nine. In spite of trials, Woods continues to put her faith securely in God, knowing all things work to the good of them that love the Lord and are called according to His purpose.
