About Ronda
A woman of many talents and interests
Doctor by day, writer by night—Dr. Ronda Wells is an award-winning author who has written inspirational romance and romantic suspense for over twenty-five years. She has helped numerous Christian writers with creating authentic medical scenes for their books. Her column, Novel Malpractice, can be read at Killer Nashville Magazine.
A lifelong Hoosier and preacher’s kid, Ronda is a wife, mother and grandmother who lives in Indiana and loves to travel. Her stories from the heartland illustrate extraordinary faith among the conflicts of ordinary life.
In succession, four elderly family members developed a variety of severe health issues including dementia. For the next 15 years, while raising two kids and working from home as a medical director, I became the family care manager. Trying to get a novel published got shoved to the back burner. I still wrote—at crazy hours, in fits and spurts, but the dream never died. In the interim, I helped other inspirational authors with writing-related medical questions and even ended up as a minor character in a Love Inspired novel.
My care managing duties ended with time, but by then, the publishing landscape had undergone a dramatic revolution from standard print runs to e-books and print-on-demand. What now?
Mountains force you to climb looking upward to God, and once you’re on top, you can see where you’ve been and can glimpse where you’re headed at the same time. God is the rock of my salvation, has always been there, never failing, never changing—even after I’ve messed up time and again.
I write about finding grace and hope in the middle of life’s unexpected conflicts. My prayer is that you will find that same hope and grace through my forthcoming books.
