About Me

Penny Frost McGinnis is the author of children’s book Betsy and/y Bailey: No One Will be Just Like You, and novels Home Where She Belongs and Home Away From Home, Abbott Island series. She’d live in a lighthouse or on an island, if she could. Instead, she and her husband are content to live in southwest Ohio and visit Lake Erie every chance they get. She adores her family and dog and indulges in dark chocolate when she writes. 


Penny's philosophy for writing stems from finding God's beauty in everyday life,
be it through nature, books, a lovely teacup, or a tattered Bible.
So often we're bogged down with the sadness and tragedy we experience or hear on the news. To combat the sorrow, God has called her to bring hope and joy
to people through a relationship with Jesus. He has so much to offer to the hurting world, and if her writing brings healing and hope through Christ, she's done a good work.

  1. It is hard to write about self. I'm leaving a comment because I've been here, and I want you to know this is pretty. I absolutely hate it (that's a joke between a grandson and me) when people don't take the time to wave. Donevy~

  2. Ms. Mcginnis, I was reading ahead in "The Upper Room" and ran across your devotion for Nov. 14 and I thought, Oh my goodness that is me! Thank you for sharing that! Prayer IS a powerful thing and I am going to share this with my men's fellowship group this week! May God continue to bless you and the work you do!

  4. Hi Penny! My name is Anita. I read your devotion in the Upper Room from 11/14/21 and felt such a kinship with you. I, too, have fibromyalgia and arthritis, along with Mixed Connective Tissue Disease, which is an autoimmune disease. I truly understand your pain and not being able to do the things you used to do that you enjoyed. Sometimes I really get discouraged and reading my devotions (like the Upper Room) really help me through. I'm still learning the Bible, but I know the Lord loves me. That makes me feel better. Your 11/14 devotion and your blog have given me hope, too. I want to thank you for that. I think God led me to you. Good luck with your new book!
