About the Author

Ruth McLeod-Kearns is a novelette author whose heavily descriptive writing reflects her experiences with motherhood, trauma nursing and heart-breaking loss.

Born in Colorado in 1963, McLeod-Kearns and her family often relocated throughout the United States until settling in California’s Central Valley.

Graduating from Southern Adventist University’s nursing program, McLeod-Kearns’ speciality in trauma led her career, spanning over 25 years, through some of the largest emergency departments in the nation. Although her nursing career ended in 2009 following a foot injury, McLeod-Kearns finally had the time to pursue her dreams of becoming an author. McLeod-Kearns went on to formally train through the UCLA Extension: Writer's Program, with a focus on short-stories.

Since June of 2013, McLeod-Kearns has self-published 9 novelettes through 5 major retailers in several countries. Her ebooks are compiled into a series titled, “30 Minutes or Less”, and are designed to be read in under half-an-hour.

Aside from writing, McLeod-Kearns enjoys spending time with her wife and 3 boys, the Los Angeles Dodgers, and reading. She currently resides in Central California and works full time as an author.
