Author Phyllis Edgerly Ring writes fiction and non-fiction. She left a part of her heart in her childhood home of Germany, which she visits as often as she can.
Her newest release, The Munich Girl: A Novel of the Legacies That Outlast War, follows the lives of three women there before, during, and after the Second World War. The novel’s protagonist begins a journey that links past and present when she discovers that her mother shared a secret friendship with Hitler’s mistress, Eva Braun.
The New Hampshire author loves writing, travel, and the noblest possibilities in the human heart and is always curious to discover how history, culture, relationship, spirituality, and the natural world influence us and guide the human family on its shared journey.
Her first novel, Snow Fence Road, was published by Black Lyon Publishing in 2013.
She is also the author of Life at First Sight: Finding the Divine in the Details from Baha’i Publishing, and With Thine Own Eyes: Why Imitate the Past When We Can Investigate Reality?, co-authored with Ron Tomanio and Diane Iverson. This second nonfiction book, released in 2014 by George Ronald Publisher, explores ways to achieve a dynamic coherence between the spiritual and material aspects of life.
Phyllis has worked as writer and editor for a variety of publications and occasionally works as “doula” to assist other authors with the development of their writing work.
She has studied plant sciences and ecology, worked as a nurse, been a tour guide, served as program director at a Baha’i conference center, taught English to kindergartners in China, and was an instructor for ten years with the Long Ridge Writer’s Group.
Her hundreds of articles and essays have appeared in such publications as Christian Science Monitor, Ms., Writer’s Digest, and Yankee magazines.
She offers workshops and presentations on a variety of topics, both for writers and general audiences. Her current focus is the research pathway, history, and story development of her novel, The Munich Girl.
