Laura looked up when the woman seated next to Adrianna turned the light off over their seats. Her gaze was drawn out the window when something large and dark flipped in front of a pair of headlights, and she felt her fingers grasp tightly to the wallet in her hand as the bus driver called out for everyone to brace themselves.

Introducing Heather Justesen

(3 votes)

Hi, I’m Heather Justesen, writer of LDS women’s fiction.

Ask anyone who knew me growing up, I would as soon have my nose in a book as go to the neighbor’s to play. Reading helped shape my image of the world, both the parts that I see on a daily basis, and the areas that are too far away for me to visit. I suppose it was only a matter of time until I started making up worlds of my own.

I started my first book—I use that term loosely because I never expect to publish that mystery story—when I was in high school, then mostly set my writing aside through my college years. It wasn’t until early 2000 that I started writing again as an outlet when things were stressful. I wrote a good start on the story, then promptly lost the handwritten manuscript when my husband and I moved.

I worked on several other stories, hoping to come across the part I had written, but didn’t until I started writing that story all over again.

Now my first book, The Ball's In Her Court is being released in October and I have a second book, Rebound, slated for release in the summer of 2010.
