Hello, my name is Ruth McLeod-Kearns and I am a short-story author. My philosophy is that a great story can be read and loved in 30 minutes or less.

During my lifetime and career as a trauma nurse, I have experienced many heart-breaking, gut-wrenching and downright funny events that have consequently blessed me with the greatest material any author could ask for.

After my nursing career ended in a foot injury, I finally had the time to pursue my dream of becoming a full-time writer and sharing my stories with the world.

I am currently working on my fourth "e-short", if you will, and have licensed my first published story, 'Carnations Never Wilt', to a media production company.

The support I have received has been immensely appreciated and I hope enjoy you my work.

Respectfully,
-Ruth McLeod-Kearns
