Violet Carr Moore

Prompted by friends who recognized through her stories that her life was filled with unusual, unexplainable events, Violet Carr Moore published her first book that leans toward paranormal, In the Right Place. Following that, Moments of Meditation, was the result of requests for her online devotionals in book format.  Miracle on a Train, a nonfiction short story, was published in Christmas Miracles, an anthology by Cecil Murphey and Marley Gibson (St. Martin’s Press, October 2009). Violet’s other publications vary from fictional short stories published for the past three years in Las Positas College anthologies to themed haiku winners in Bay Area News Groups printed and online editions. A Real Mother was published in Chicken Soup for the Soul: Devotional Stories for Mothers (Simon and Schuster, November 2010). She is a winner for three continuous years in the Novel in a Month (NaNoWriMo) contest. Her most recent success is publication in Voices of the Valley: First Press (December 2011), Tri-Valley Writers anthology.

Violet is a featured devotional and Bible study writer for More to Life Ladies Ministries and a community volunteer. She is co-owner of Carr Twins & Co. publishers. 

Violet is president of California Writers Club, Tri-Valley Branch where she is also active in a novelists critique group.
