Katie Asher

Katie Asher is an author whose writing flows from the depths of her heart, centered on her faith and her family. A single mother for over fifteen years, Katie has faced the challenges of raising five children, including her second child, who is severely autistic. After more than two decades of believing he was intellectually disabled, Katie discovered his true brilliance and unique gifts through intensive research into the sensory and neurological aspects of autism. This profound journey inspired her to co-author "The Book of Heaven," a heartfelt exploration of the emotional and spiritual struggles parents endure while navigating faith and trauma in the world of autism.
