Clabaugh

Susan M. Clabaugh lives in Missouri. She is a childhood sexual abuse and assault survivor who is still on her recovery journey. She writes a blog called “Restoring the Soul: Meditations for Survivors of Sexual Assault”, to encourage others on their journey in healing from sexual abuse and assault. She loves to write, read, sew dresses for girls in Liberia, work in her church's food pantry, and tutor reading students. Susan taught elementary school for 11 years and has her Master’s degree in teaching. She won third place for her children’s story at the Heart of America Christian Writer’s Conference in Overland Park, Kansas. In the winter, if you don’t find her writing or sewing, she will usually be curled up with a good book and a hot cup of tea.
