For three-quarters of a century, Reba Rhyne's home has been in East Tennessee in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains, where her ancestor's heritage runs deep. During this time, she was married for 25 years, had a daughter, and established a business of her own. Writing began as a hobby, when she spent months on clients' locations as a consultant, developing prototypes for boat upholstery. Using her Tipton ancestors, she is creating "The Tipton Chronicles," which has been a great joy. With a wealth of information, she uses real and fictional Tipton's in her 3 published novels with 4, 5, and 6 on the way, some historical and some contemporary. For over sixty years, she has been a Christ-follower who believes her responsibility is to follow the Great Commission found in Matthew. Retired? She loves to travel and write.
