Ruth Mitchell grew up in Salt Lake City writing plays for the neighborhood kids and “exploring” the woods near her home. She met her husband, Bill, on her first day of school at the University of Utah where she graduated with a degree in journalism. She worked as a reporter for the Deseret News before they moved their young family to Texas for Bill’s medical training. After three years in Dallas, they relocated to San Diego where they welcomed their fourth child and put down roots. Ruth enjoys long rambling conversations, baking, party-planning, road trips and running (slowly). Deleted is her first published novel.
“I came up with my book idea, Deleted, because I am always saying embarrassing things and wishing I could erase it from other people’s memories.
I love it when reader’s tell me they stayed up until 2 a.m. reading my book.”
