Heather Radford was born in Kirkland Lake, Ontario, Canada as Linda Grace Brooks. At age eighteen she went west to Manitoba to her first job in a native sanatorium in Ninette, Manitoba. She currently lives in the Pas, Manitoba with her husband and pet Papillon. Heather's publishing credits include A Dog For Keeps, published by Nelson Canada, Toronto, Canada, The Asquinn Twins: Frontier Life, published by Friesen Press, Victoria, BC, Canada, The Asquinn Twins: Where The Trail Forks, also published by Friesen Press, and The Asquinn Twins: No Greener Pastures, published by Lanico Media House in the United States. Under her real name she's an ongoing contributor to the Baptists For Liberty magazine and waiting for an article to be published in Seniors magazine in Manitoba. Heather and her husband are retired now and live in a cozy house in The Pas. Heather loves all kinds of outdoor-activities, such as walking, biking, and she used to do a lot of swimming. Lately, since retirement she finds herself indoors a lot and discovers she has a talent for baking. Heather says she's written other stories besides A Dog For Keeps, under a different pen name, but The Asquinn Twins Series are stories from her heart.
