Valiant Hearts: Author

Award-winning Christian author, Dina Sleiman, writes stories of passion and grace. Most of the time you will find this Virginia Beach resident reading, biking, dancing, or hanging out with her husband and three children, preferably at the oceanfront or enjoying her lake.

Since finishing her Professional Writing MA at Regent University in 1994, she has enjoyed many opportunities to teach literature, writing, and the arts. Her debut novel, Dance of the Dandelion with Whitefire Publishing, won an Honorable Mention in the 2012 Selah Awards, and her cross-over YA novel, Dauntless, won the 2016 Carol Award in its genre from the American Christian Fiction Writers. Also look for her books, Love in Three-Quarter Time, Dance from Deep Within, and the rest of her Valiant Hearts series with Bethany House Publishers including Chivalrous and Courageous.

During the day Dina now utilizes her writing talent with the humanitarian organization Operation Blessing bringing beauty out of ashes--help and hope to a broken world. Just doing the kingdom of God thing, freely and lightly, as a living epistle, dancing from deep within, in the unforced rhythms of grace--while doing my part to save the world ;)

She invites you to join her for a wild fun ride!
