Micah's parents always knew she was different. How many daddies had to spank their children to make them STOP practicing the piano? That passion for expression carried into the written word, and audiences have been inspired by her messages. When she is not writing or using her keyboard talents, Micah serves as a Bible teacher, mentor, public speaker, seminar teacher, and guest worship leader. In her community, Micah served as the first female president of the Texas City Kiwanis Club, received Rotary's Paul Harris Fellow recognition, and was honored by the Galveston Daily News as one of seven Unsung Heroes in her community. Married to banker Mike Duckett for 44 years, Micah's other loves include three sons, 3 daughters-in-love, and seven grand-blessings.  This author's book is a Spring Arbor Distribution/IngramSpark listing; published by WestBow Press, a division of Thomas Nelson/Zondervan.

We asked Micah to describe her favorite adventure. "One of the greatest adventures of my life was riding on a dogsled pulled by an Iditarod-trained team. The Juneau, Alaska training camp was accessible only by helicopter, and as we landed atop that mountain in the pristine snow, we were greeted by all the barking dogs, who were anxious and excited to run. I expected the driver to scream, "Mush," and the team to struggle to pull the weight of the five adults in the sled, but imagine my surprise when she quietly uttered, "Well, alrighty then," and OFF the dogs shot without a moment's hesitation. Creating new tracks as the team moved swiftly over the white untouched blanket, a sense of awe and wonder came over me in this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity among the solitude and sovereignty of a place much of the world would never know."
