A hint of romance, a fight worth risking everything for, and a pair of engaging leading characters–—that’s the kind of book I like to read so that’s the kind I write.
When I’m not writing, I am a water aerobics enthusiast, amateur jewelry maker, struggling bridge player, and devoted grandmother.I grew up in Kentucky, went to college at the University of Georgia where I had way too much fun, and graduated from the University of Kentucky. After college, I worked for the Associated Press then became a reporter for “The Hartford Courant” in Connecticut. My two daughters were born there. My newspaperman husband got a job in Memphis and we moved there. I became a freelance speechwriter, publicist, and marketing person for major local companies, but my favorite gigs were with the Memphis City Schools and the Memphis Symphony Orchestra. I retired, and began doing what I’d wanted to do since sixth grade: write fiction.
I wrote short stories that appeared in such anthologies as “Now There Was a Story”, “Low Down Dirty Vote II and III”, “Mayhem in Memphis,” and “Mystery, Crime, and Mayhem”. Since I liked short stories, I tried my hand at a longer form and wrote a novella of love and murder, “The Yellow Fever Revenge.” What I really wanted to write a novel, and so was born the civil rights era suspense/thriller series, Sterling Brothers Ltd. So far the series includes “Justice Tomorrow,” “The Price of a Future,” and coming soon, “Wigs, Mustaches, and Other Disguises”.
Since every writer needs a support group, I am the immediate president of Malice in Memphis a Killer Writing Group.
