After decades of writing journalistic articles and a few nonfiction books, Cynthia Mines has channeled her love of research into historical fiction, which she believes may be a better way to preserve stories from the past for modern readers. After earning a master's degree in English, she worked as an editor at Wichita State University before joining the Wichita Business Journal. Along the way, she wrote freelance travel articles for the Los Angeles Times and Fodor’s guidebooks. A grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities funded her research on the role the railroad played in Mexican immigration to Kansas. In 1993, she founded The Wichita Times and Travel Kansas magazine, which she served as publisher-editor for 32 years. Her nonfiction book, For the Sake of Art: The Story of a Kansas Renaissance, was named a Kansas Notable Book in 2016. National awards have come from the Association of Area Business Publications for column writing, the National Federation of Press Women for a book on the McPherson Opera House, and Pikes Peaks Writers for historical fiction.
