Carrie Daws

Biography

Over the years, God rewrote Carrie’s dreams from being a corporate accountant to being a writer. With a background writing online weekly devotions, a mentor at the Christian Writer’s Guild encouraged her to try fiction. The writing monster she now barely keeps contained was born. Since then, she’s completed several inspirational fiction books and encouraging nonfiction for military spouses and new believers.

After almost ten years in the US Air Force, Carrie’s husband medically retired, and they settled in North Carolina. With their three children all figuring out what they want to do in life after school, Carrie stays busy keeping up with her family and friends, loving on women, and entering story worlds via books and movies as much as she can.
