About the Author
✦
Steven Rousell is a corrections officer, husband, father, and outdoorsman who writes from real-life experience and from the people and lessons that have shaped him.
His books explore what happens behind the walls, what follows officers home, what families carry beside them, and how faith, accountability, brotherhood, and second chances can change a life.
When he is not writing or working, Steven can usually be found with family or outdoors hunting, fishing, and spending time in New York's North Country.
Life on the Farm
✦
Home life beyond the pages—family, animals, the land, hunting, growing food, and the changing North Country seasons.
Home is where life slows down. Beyond the prison walls and beyond the pages, there is family, animals to tend, gardens to work, hunting and fishing, changing seasons, and the ordinary moments that matter most. Life on the farm is part of what keeps everything grounded—and many of those quiet moments find their way into the heart of the stories.
