Welcome to The Writer's Garden, a place where writers can sow and share ideas, cultivate their craft, put down roots, and grow in faith. My name is Tracy Gerhardt Cooper, and I’m a New Jersey, writer, gardener, high school teacher, and nature lover. For a really good time, I love a cup of Earl Grey tea and perusing a seed catalog.

Some of my most profound moments with God have been in the garden, on local hiking trails, and in the splendor of national parks. He whispers love and wisdom to us through His creation, which inspires me in my creative life. We are Imago Dei, made in the image of the creator—made to create.

This space is dedicated to those who feel called create through the lens of faith. Whether you're an experienced writer or a beginner, you’ll find encouragement, resources, and a community to help you nurture your writing journey.

Our mission is to create a supportive environment where writers can deepen their connection to God’s purpose in their writing. Through biblical insights, practical tips, and inspiring stories, we aim to foster growth not just in your writing skills, but in your spiritual walk as well.

We believe that each word written with faith has the power to inspire, encourage, and transform. Come, join us as we plant seeds of creativity and let our words bloom into something beautiful.
