Paula Cooks was born and raised in Mineral Wells and has authored several books. Her motivation has been her faith, and the promise she kept to her deceased parents.
Cooks doesn’t see herself as a writer. Her favorite quotation is, “Imperfections, but striving towards perfection. Real personal events changes lives.”
Through decades dealing with family’s trails, tribulations, and her personal social diseases God deposited much deliverance in her life. God has given her the gift to share with others through writing. Cooks said she loves God so much for His faithfulness toward her each and every day brings new challenges in her life.
Cooks invites everyone to visit her website www.beautyofforgiveness.com, and you can purchase her books online at Amazon.com, Barnes&Nobles.com, and in local Christian book stores.
