Weaving stories of hope with threads of Southern charm.

WELCOME!!

I’m so glad you’re here!

I started writing when I was 9 years old and never quit. Over the years, I’ve scribbled poems on scrap pieces of paper, typed stories that will never see the light of day, and penned personal quotes, dreams, goals, and creative ideas in random journals. I find joy in stringing sentences together and love the art of STORY.

Bio:

Kristy Ensor is an award-winning writer weaving stories of hope with threads of Southern charm. Her BA degree is in communications (journalism emphasis), and she additionally studied special education. Prior to embarking on her writing career, she worked with children and adults with autism and other learning differences for many years.

A regular contributor for Lifeway’s Journey magazine, she also writes articles, essays, and devotions for other publications. Although she has been featured in books and anthologies of various genres, Kristy dreams of becoming a successful contemporary fiction novelist one day. She belongs to several writing groups where she continues to learn and grow in her craft.

Kristy co-wrote the devotional, Hope is . . ., and her current work in progress is a children’s book titled, All Kinds of Kind. She has other books up her sleeve and has a deep appreciation for readers.

A lifelong southerner, she currently lives in a delightful town south of Nashville. She’s been married to her husband since 1994, and they have one son. You can find her online (@thebackroaddiva) where she shares about life, local travel experiences, inspiration, and Monday Motivations. Known as the “Back Road Diva” due to her love of traveling off the beaten path, she aspires to offer hope, comfort, and encouragement through her writing and in everyday life.

Book Projects:

I co-authored the devotional, Hope is . . ., and I’m also honored my work has been featured in several book compilations by the Southern Christian Writers Conference and Christian Writers for Life. My current work in progress is a children’s book titled, All Kinds of Kind, and I also have other writing projects up my sleeve. I look forward to sharing all my books with you and appreciate your interest in my work. Thanks so much for being here! It means the world. Besides, what’s the point of writers without readers?
