Personalities: Curt and DeDe Iles
Curt and DeDe are from Dry Creek, Louisiana. Curt is an author of many books: A Spent Bullet, Deep Roots, A Good Place, The Wayfaring Stranger, The Mockingbird’s Song, Hearts across the Water, Wind in the Pines, The Old House, Stories from the Creekbank. Curt also travels around speaking at different events.


Here is more about Curt from his Website www.CreekBank.net.

You can go home again . . . Curt Iles is a native of the piney woods of western Louisiana where his family has resided for eight generations. After college, he returned to his hometown of Dry Creek, Louisiana.

His life has been about relationships. As a teacher/coach, high school principal, and camp manager, Curt has always enjoyed meeting and making new friends. In the six years he has written and spoken full time, relationship building has continued to be a priority.

He and his wife of thirty-two years, DeDe, are parents of three sons and five grandchildren. DeDe is an elementary teacher and they both serve in their local church and many community activities.

. . . It’s still okay to leave home

In spite of Curt’s deep Louisiana roots, he has an incurable case of wanderlust. This has led to hiking adventures throughout America and repeated mission trips to Asia, Central America, and his second home, the African continent.

Curt feels blessed to live and write in an era where one can live in their rural hometown and still be connected to the world through the internet and other modern conveniences.

ABOUT CREEKBANK STORIES . . . “Come to the creek from where good stories flow.”

Creekbank Stories is our writing and speaking ministry. Its name implies what we’re about: telling stories with a definite rural and woodsy flavor.
