N. Reece Ho-Sheffield is a retired medical doctor and asst. professor who had practiced clinically for many years in the United Kingdom and in the United States of America. She specialized in pediatrics and medical genetics. A prolific medical writer, she had published numerous articles in premier peer-reviewed medical journals such as The New England Journal of Medicine and The Lancet.Since retirement, she develops a love for writing fictional children's stories and any other stories blessed, inspired, moved and motivated by the HOLY SPIRIT for her to put pen to paper, inventing unique children's games, and creating novel art and craft. Reece is a devout Christian. Her hobbies include intensive bible study, training to be a marathoner and cooking/experimenting with different varieties of hummus and fresh frozen yoghurt. Whatever she does, she wants to be a trail-blazer. One of her dreams is to create a safe preservative that can be added to surplus cooked food, keeping the food as unspoiled as possible, for months to a year, and which can therefore be transported to under-developed countries. Reece won the USA Mom's Choice Awards for The Firefly Story (under the name of Nicola C. Ho, M.D.) and Reece's Timeless Tales (N. Reece Ho, M.D.). You can blog with her in Facebook.
