James H. (Jim) Pence is a full-time speaker, singer, chalk artist, writer, and editor, living in North Texas. Jim turned to writing in 1988 as a helpful means of expression after the death of his baby daughter Michelle. Eight years later, Dallas Seminary's Kindred Spirit published "A Road Not Chosen," Jim's narrative account of his and his wife's experience.

Jim's latest book is Terror by Night, the true story of the brutal Texas murders that destroyed a family, restored one man's faith, and shocked a nation.
