Tell me about yourself and your writing.
I wrote a romantic suspense novel in 1985, went the traditional route and it was not published. I made a career change that year and for the next 25 plus years, I devoted myself 100% to my training management positions. When my Director of Training position was eliminated in 2011, a door closed for me but another one opened. I had an opportunity to make my dream of writing books a reality. So I went for it.
I did a lot of Internet research in self-publishing. Indie authors like Theresa Ragan and John Locke really motivated me to take the Indie route. Like them, I wanted to retain control of book design, writing, marketing, etc. Thus, my Indie journey began with my first book Deadly Offerings published in 2011, followed by Deadly Deception, Deadly Relations, and Deadly Holiday in 2012. Profile of Evil, the first book of my new Profile Series was published in 2013. In 2014, I will release Profile of Terror and Profile of Fear.
Who are some of your favorite authors?
I love reading books by James Patterson, Alison Brennan, Ann Rule, Kathryn Casey, Laura Griffin, Dianna Love and others. I try to stick to the thriller or romantic suspense genre, but I have always been a fan of true crime.
