THE STORY BEHIND THE WORDS
April Jones
About the Author
April Jones is an educator, author, and storyteller whose writing celebrates faith, family, resilience, and the extraordinary moments found in ordinary lives. Raised in the close-knit communities of Southwest Virginia and now calling Colorado home, she draws inspiration from the people, places, and experiences that have shaped her journey.
A graduate of Virginia Tech, April has dedicated more than twenty-six years to serving students, families, and educators. Her career in education has strengthened her belief that every person has a story worth telling and that meaningful connections can inspire hope, healing, and growth.
Whether writing memoir, fiction, journals, or inspirational works, April's goal is to create stories and resources that encourage readers to reflect, dream, and embrace the beauty of their own journeys. She hopes every book leaves readers with a renewed appreciation for love, grace, and the power of second chances.
When she isn't writing, April enjoys reading, traveling, spending time with her husband, Quincy, and their family, and returning to the mountains of Virginia, where her love of
storytelling first began.
