About

For years, Alena Mentink’s dream was to see one of her books in print–and now that dream has come true.

Alena has lived her entire life on a farm in the heart of Nebraska, running through the pastures with her siblings, trekking through the creek bottoms, playing on top of the square bales stacked in the barn loft, and swimming in the muddy farm pond. All things that every kid ought to experience. With her childhood filled with those kinds of old-fashioned adventure, it’s no surprise that she decided to write historical fiction.

Alena Mentink writes because she loves adding quality to other’s lives through the stories she shares. There’s nothing that blesses her so much as hearing that one of her stories touched someone’s heart! Alena’s goal in her writing is always to honor the Lord and to draw readers closer to Him.
