CAROL
GIBBS
A
WRITER ' S
HEART
Carol A. Gibbs was born on a military base in
Fort Lee, Virginia. Her father was a Vietnam Vet.
She and her family did a lot of traveling, got to
see a lot of the world and different cultures,
which inspired her love of writing. She is also a
member of several book clubs. You may find
her, at any given time, at a river on the pier with
a pencil and journal. You may even find her
with a camera in her hand taking pictures of
nature. Photography is her second love, but
writing has always been and always will be her
heart.
