JAN VERHOEFF
Author of EASTER MENU & RECIPE COOKBOOK,REAL AUTO MAINTENANCE FOR REAL PEOPLE
Lights,
camera, action! Focus on life, as Jan Verhoeff, creator of the Breken
Ridge Adventure Series does and you�ve got all the action you need to
fill up three or four books. Inspired by her not-yet-teenaged
boys, Jan began to understand the need for books that related to
children of single parent homes when her own sons delved into the Hardy
Boys Mystery Books and came up wondering how it would be if their
father were a Detective. With big sis, criminal justice major, Brenna
Verhoeff in the mix, it wasn�t a big jump to move directly into writing
the mystery-detective style novel the boys loved.
Jan's
history of business writing, psychology, and techno-jargon set the
stage while she continued to pursue goals of business development and
promotion. Power-driven action based writing continues to be her direct
style. A copywriter with more than 20 years of experience marketing
business prototypes, Jan's understanding of life as a single parent and
children presents fascinating reading.
Many of their
adventures found resources in education as Jan taught her children
about life and living through home schooling. Tatia, Sean, and Kenton
weave their webs of intrigue daily inspiring their mother's latest
tales.
Jan's work promotes family, achievement, and
integrity with strong family relationships as a foundation. You won't
want to miss a thrilling moment of her version of life on the Ridge.
