Twin Falls Chapter
Idaho Writers' League
Writer of the Year
2004
Win Lenore Mobley is a native of Idaho; she has always lived in Jerome except for her early years attending a teaching college.
She is currently serving as vice president of the Twin Falls chapter of the Idaho Writers' League. She enjoys the friendship and critiquing they have offered her.
She has published her first historical western romance novel titled The Journey Series 1. This first novel titled THE DANGEROUS JOURNEY is based on a journal written in 1878, about a woman named Molly Newman who embarked on a cattle drive to the railhead. This pioneer woman lived on a ranch north of Fairfield before Idaho's statehood. This book tells of the dangers she encountered on the journey. The narrative also includes history of the Native American tribes that lived in the Idaho wilderness. It is a paperback novel for any age to read, especially the person who enjoys horses.

The second novel of The Journey Series, titled THE LOST JOURNEY, features a brave and courageous young woman who encounters many hardships when she attempts to minister to a native tribe near her mountain home. It is a romantic novel with a surprise ending.
Written in both her books are many descriptions of the Sawtooth National Forest which Lenore took from a journal she has kept over a period of 30 years while riding on her horse with a club called the Thursday Sage Riders.
She has written a children's story titled Calypso, Dark Horse that is being published at this time.
The Journey Series 2, titled Star Dancers Summer Journey, should be published in late July.
Lenore has enjoyed submitting several short stories into the IWL contest this year, and plans on writing more short stories in the future.
In the last two years she has written several short narratives which have been published in the valleys daily newspaper.
One of her non fiction stories was accepted for print in the Twin Falls 2004 centennial journal.
Lenore enjoys doing book signings in places of business and at public celebrations.
She and her husband, Bill, have retired from farming but still live on their farm north of Jerome. Besides being active in their country church, they are busy with their twelve grandchildren taking them either horseback riding or camping and fishing. They are also active in many clubs that work for the privilege to ride in the back country of the National Forests of the great Northwest.
