Kim Washburn

Kim Washburn began her career in Christian publishing with Focus on the Family. After working with the marketing and publicity team for the organization’s books, she became an associate editor for its monthly magazine Clubhouse Jr. Starting in 1997 she evaluated fiction and nonfiction for young readers, contributed original pieces, and helped create a polished, entertaining, and edifying publication for four- to eight-year-olds. Two of her stories for Clubhouse Jr. were recognized by the Evangelical Press Association, including first place in the fiction category in 2006. Currently Kim stays home—and stays on her toes—with her nine-year-old daughter and seven-year-old twin sons.
