The Heart Behind Writing with Grace
Meet Ann, the head and heart behind Writing with Grace.
If you know Ann Swindell, you know that she is a wholehearted cheerleader and champion of other women writers; she believes that God has created more than enough space in the Kingdom for every writer to flourish in her own sphere of influence. She loves equipping fellow writers and helping them make the connections in the industry that they need to thrive.
Ann is also a natural coach and gifted teacher: she taught literary and creative writing courses at Wheaton College (IL) for five years before starting Writing with Grace, which has drawn students from across the globe in just a few years thanks to word of mouth and the grace of God.
Ann holds an MA in Writing from DePaul University as well as an MFA in Creative Nonfiction Writing from Seattle Pacific University. She is an author with Bethany House (The Path to Peace) and Tyndale House Publishers (Still Waiting), and her work has appeared in numerous anthologies, devotionals, and publications, from The Gospel Coalition to Risen Motherhood.
In her role as a literary agent, Ann is passionate about connecting Christ-centered writers and their projects to Christian publishing houses in order to help further the good news of the Gospel across the world.
