Author Information

A native Minnesotan, Don Engebretson began writing about his passion -- gardening -- after college and soon was writing for magazines across the US. He has won five national writing awards from Garden Communicators International. Always a fiction fan, he began writing short stories and ultimately sat down to write Welcome to Kamini, his debut novel. Don joyfully acknowledges that summers spent at the family cottage in Minaki, Ontario had the greatest impact on his upbeat personality and positive outlook on life.
