It’s my pleasure to welcome Jennifer Hudson Taylor to Ink Dots this week. Jennifer’s an award-winning author. When she isn't writing, Jennifer enjoys spending time with her family, traveling, researching her own family history, and reading. She resides with her husband and daughter in the Charlotte, North Carolina.
Path of Freedom - When Quakers Flora Saferight and Bruce Millikan embark on the Underground Railroad, they agree to put their differences aside to save the lives of a pregnant slave couple. With only her mother’s quilt as a secret guide, the foursome follows the stitches through unknown treachery.
As they embark on their perilous journey, they hope and pray that their path is one of promise where love sustains them, courage builds faith, and forgiveness leads to freedom.

Want to know more about the author of Path to Freedom? Of course you do. Here's a snippet of what Jennifer loves and longs for...
If I could go anywhere in the world tomorrow, it would be.....to Scotland! I've always wanted to go there and tour old castles and visit the land my ancestors came from.
One thing I enjoyed today is.....that my daughter started homeschool with her dad and it went great. She has Epilepsy and Asperger's Syndrome and public high school was not working out. We checked into other schools and ran out of options in our area.
A moment that changed my life is....my daughter's birth.
Sundays are for...spending family time together with God.
When I was a child I wanted to....be a published novelist.
I probably shouldn’t tell you this, but...I would love to take a whole summer and go backpacking across Europe before I get too old. While there I'd like to travel by train, motorcycle, horseback into the highlands, take ferries from island to island in Argyll. I want to stay in different places, old castles, old manors, hotels, and hostels.

Oh, I am so with you on the old castles and manors, Jennifer. I'm not in a hurry to get on a motorcycle, but a slow barge through the waterways of Europe sounds perfect. With a case of great books to read...
Jennifer is offering a giveaway copy of Path to Freedom to one Ink Dots friend. Please leave a comment below to be in the draw. Tell us if you've ever visited an old castle or manor and how you found yourself there. I'll announce the winner in the comment thread on Friday. Good luck :o)
