About
OUR AUTHORS
Helen R. Myers
Author
Helen R. Myers knew she wanted to become a writer since becoming a failed poet at the ripe age of seven when her politically-incorrect poem wasn’t chosen to be displayed in the hallway outside of her second-grade class for Parents’-Teacher Night. Selling her first book in 1986, she’s published forty-five romances, seven suspense novels, and two mainstream novels that have sold in twenty-eight countries and have been translated into twenty-five languages. A USA Today bestselling author, she’s been nominated for, and won, several awards, including a Golden Medallion/Rita Award from Romance Writers of America for NAVARRONE.
Born in New Jersey, she has called Texas home for over four decades. She and husband Robert spent most of their thirty-one years of marriage on Crooked Pine Ranch in the East Texas Piney Woods, until his sudden death in 2006. A long-time dog rescuer, she is currently “Mom” to cow-dog mix Roxie, black-and-tan hound Penny, and red heeler Brody. She and writing partner and long-time friend Gail Reed are currently collaborating on their third novel.
Mary Gail Reed
Author
Mary Gail Reed is a native Texan who has had a lifelong passion for writing. She and her veterinarian husband of thirty-eight years raised four children in the Northeast region of the state. After the youngest graduated from high school, she traveled extensively through her work for USDA and as an auditor for a Fortune 500 company.
In 2011, Gail faced a devastating loss when her husband, Mike, died unexpectedly and it was her unwavering faith that brought her through that difficult time. She continued to hone her craft as a writer and had stories published in college library collections, as well as articles in a regional newspaper.
In 2015, Gail collaborated with Helen Myers and June Foster to write the highly-praised novel, A FLOCK OF SPARROWS. She currently lives in the same community, surrounded by the love of her family, good friends, and Max, a rescued Labrador retriever.
Tributes Press
Tributes Press is the imprint for MYERS & REED books. It is the continuation and evolution of why we write, what we believe, and what we are striving for as we build stories about life, family, crises, love, and faith. As imperfect human beings, we also salute that which has inspired us, and those who have helped us grow. Every new day is an opportunity, which is reflected by our tiny bird logo. May words carry the heart to new heights. May ideas make the soul soar.
