Board Members
Below is a list of the current volunteer Board Members. You can find the Board Meeting Minutes on our Google Drive. Contact us if you are interested in becoming a Committee Head or sitting in a Board Meeting.
Lisa Hess
ICW Secretary
Lisa is a women’s fiction, YA fiction, and non-fiction author and blogger, journalist, non-profit consultant, mentor, homeschooling mom, dog-lover and bookpusher, both those you buy and those you borrow. In addition to Idaho, she’s lived in every state along the Pacific Coast and loved the people in all of them. She finds humans fascinating, and her writing tends to reflect that, along with an evolving faith in God and hope for humanity. You can read about Lisa’s ICW odyssey in Writerly Wednesdays, here.
Angela Cooper
ICW Treasurer
Angela can’t write, but she can spell.
Lori Hancok
ICW Vice President
Lori is a long time Boise resident, active in the education and arts community. She has a heart for Christian authors and artists and is a true-believer of great literature. She is a word-afficionado who delights in the right word at the right time almost as much as the beauty of the natural word. Something that makes her come alive is the adventure of wandering down a new road.
Hilarey Johnson
ICW President
Hilarey has published six novels and several audiobooks. She has dabbled in writing for newspapers, magazines, blogs and ghostwriting. Hilarey previously served on the IdaHope Writers Board before the ICW relaunch. She loves paddleboarding, swimming and hiking with friends or family. Hilarey favors women’s literary fiction, but appreciates any story with irony, poetic justice or disruption of dogma.
