Myrna Temte lives in Washington state with her husband, two teenage daughters and a miniature schnauzer who thinks she's in charge of the household. As a native Montanan who attended college at the University of Wyoming, Myrna grew up surrounded by the kinds of people she enjoys writing about now--ranchers and small town residents with big hearts, modern ideas and old-fashioned values. She loves sharing her knowledge of her home state and other western states with readers from all over the world.
