Gina Prosch is a writer, editor, and teacher.
She is the the author of This Day’s Joy and the companion journal Finding This Day’s Joy, based on her popular #ThisDaysJoy feature, which has recently celebrated its 10th anniversary and runs as a daily publication at ThisDaysJoy.com.
Together with her husband, Richard, she co-wrote the Jo Harper Western adventure series. These stories set in the early days of the 20th century feature Jo and her best pal, Frog. Together they help Constable Abigail Drake keep the good people of mythical Willowby, Wyoming safe from criminals and ne’er do wells.
Her new children’s book Joy: You Find What You Look For is forthcoming from Boys Town Press in summer 2023 and features illustrations by Kyle Merriman.
Over the years Gina’s nonfiction has appeared in a wide variety of print and online magazines.
She is currently at work on a nonfiction book–All the Stories We Do Not Know–chronicling the World War II experiences of US Navy WAVE Jean Prosch, who was featured in a recent article of the same title which Gina wrote for American Essence magazine.
Gina also co-hosts The OnlySchoolers Podcast and recently published A Homeschool Vocabulary: A-Z with the OnlySchoolers. Gina and her podcast co-host, Christyn Edwards, are working on their second book based on their experience as homeschool parents.
Gina lives on a family farm in mid-Missouri with her award-winning writer husband, Richard Prosch, and son, Wyatt. When she’s not writing, she may be found hand out in her garden or curled up in her favorite chair crocheting or hand quilting.
