Hey there! My name is Carol Channer. 

I've enjoyed writing poetry and short stories for many years.  

Born and raised in southern New Jersey, I've been living in Central Florida since 1975. My husband Wayne and I have been married since 1980, raising two daughters and one son together. We now have two grandchildren, and are excited to be adding another grandson in September of 2009! 

My son and son-in-law are both currently on active duty in the military, which has inspired my latest devotional book, entitled, “Strength for Today While My Soldier is Away.”  My son has completed a tour in Iraq and is now re-deployed to Afghanistan until February 2010. He and his wife are expecting their first child. My son-in-law, who has been stationed overseas for several years, has just returned from a 15 month deployment to Iraq and has recently settled into a new duty station, Ft. Gordon, Georgia. Yeah!

I am available for speaking engagements for groups who support our military.

 I enjoy working within the Christian community, often writing inspirational poetry for special events, and working with the women’s, children’s, music, and Sign Language ministries in my church. I am a committed member of the National Day of Prayer Task Force of Osceola County, and I also enjoy volunteering as a swimming instructor to the elementary school children in the local public school system.
