She lives in Alabama with her husband whom she has been married to for 36 years; and their youngest son. Jones’ leisure activities are retail therapy, hiking, and reading had always loved to read than loved writing. The very first time Linda figured out that she was interested in writing was when she took a creative writing class. Writing became a big part of her life. It even came in between her yoga and French classes or even when she was decorating a cake or cooking Chinese food. Jones was always a full-time wife and mother for many years, as well as a fast-food restaurant manager, a compulsive taker of classes, a real estate saleswoman, and a picture framer with her own business. It took her a while before she sat down to write her first book.
