ABOUT ME

 

My passion for writing began with a hunger for books from fellow New Jerseyan Judy Blume, and Nancy Drew mysteries. And each Saturday, a side dish of The Hardy Boys whet my appetite for hunting down clues and solving crime. Thus began a three-course menu for becoming a writer.

 

For hors d'oeuvres, I sampled women's fiction for a bit with novels, All Waters Gathering (2008) and Carruther's Place (2011). It wasn't until I realized murder should really be on the menu when the main course became my thriller, Barbecue (2011).

My plate's not quite clean of things that go bump in the night—plenty of horror and creepy thrillers in the works!—but one must always save room for dessert.

 

Rich and sweet came Dial QR for Murder, the first Digital Age Cozy™ in the Marjorie Gardens Mystery series.

 

And I haven't reached the icing on the cake just yet! I couldn't have enjoyed this feast of writing from my home in Holland without my husband and our daughter—to who I owe thanks for all their patience and compassion when (at times) I bit off more than I could chew!
