Donna M. Hatcher is more than an author—she’s a voice for the voiceless, a survivor turned storyteller, and a passionate advocate for hope. Her two-part memoir series, Thorns Within a Rose, blends personal narrative, poetic reflection, and spiritual encouragement to reveal the beauty that can bloom from life’s deepest pain.
Born the youngest of ten children, Donna’s early years were marked by instability, loss, and the challenges of foster care. Her journey took her through moments of heartbreak, abuse, and struggle, but her faith in God became her anchor. Today, she uses her writing to help others heal emotional wounds, strengthen their faith, and embrace self-love.
When she’s not writing, Donna enjoys spending time with her family, singing in her church choir, decorating for weddings and events, and sharing uplifting messages with her online community.
