Suzie Andres is a Catholic wife and mother living and writing in sunny Southern California. She and her husband Tony have been Discalced Carmelite Seculars drawing sustenance from the charism and doctrine of St. Teresa of Avila, St. John of the Cross, and St. Thérèse of Lisieux for thirty years. The fruits of this feasting are available in Suzie's most recent book, Something New with St. Thérèse, Her Eucharistic Miracle, as well as in her previous books: Homeschooling with Gentleness, and A Little Way of Homeschooling (the latter of which features essays by a dozen other Catholic wives and mothers); The Paradise Project (a novel taking its inspiration from Pride and Prejudice, but set as a romantic comedy in a modern day Catholic milieu); and Selected Sermons of Thomas Aquinas McGovern, S.J., a work she edited in collaboration with the late founding president of Thomas Aquinas College, Dr. Ronald P. McArthur. Having earned her undergraduate degree in Liberal Arts at Thomas Aquinas College and a Masters in Philosophy at the University of Notre Dame, Suzie finds her most prized lessons have been learned at the school of the two Little Flowers, St. Thérèse and her spiritual little brother, the Vietnamese Servant of God Marcel Van. The three of them can be found online at Miss Marcel's Musings (suzieandres.com/blog). Her very newest book, commissioned by the Augustine Institute and forthcoming from Ignatius Press is: Being Catholic, What Every Catholic Should Know.
