and the earth under our feet."
About Me
I’m Natasha Woodcraft and I live in a slightly crumbling old farmhouse in Lincolnshire, UK, with my husband, Ben, my 4 sons, and a small menagerie of animals.
I have been a follower of Jesus for as long as I can recall. There was never a time when I rejected the good news, but it was much later I learnt to listen to God.
Many moons ago, I studied theology at university. I had a thought I might re-write classic theological works into modern language but it seems that wasn’t what God had in mind.
I have always been very active within church, yet it was a period of inactivity, where I was forced to sit at Jesus’ feet and admit my weaknesses, that taught me most about my Saviour. That was when I began writing songs, and the things I learnt during that time I’ve later woven into my stories.
Stories? Yes, despite my intentions about being a non-fiction writer, the first idea God gave me was for a series of Biblical fiction novels. I had some serious brain fog after having 4 kids, and found I could engage with stories better than with non-fiction. Turns out I could write them better too! I now believe passionately that stories have power to communicate deep truth and transform lives.

The series is finally complete! The Wanderer’s Legacy completes my exploration of Genesis 4 through biblical fiction, charting the descendants of Cain, and diving into the world of Lamech through the eyes of his first wife, Adah. A dual timeline epic, this book explores the tragedy of the human condition as Lamech’s family takes all of Cain’s faults to their extremes, but don’t worry! There is always hope in my writing! How will Yahweh break into this darkness? Read it to find out!
