About
I like serendipity, synchronicity, and things that are strange. I love good ghost stories, especially the ones I write. I've been known to stay in haunted hotels I've heard about on TV. I like to read mysteries, paranormal novels, and books about spiritual law. I'm not big on reading Young Adult fiction. I watch Oddities, Pawn Stars, Mad Men, So You Think You Can Dance, and White Collar. Oh, and Ghost Hunters, The Dead Files, and Ghost Adventures.
Why did I write the Mickey McCoy mystery series?
Because I've always enjoyed all things paranormal, ironic or macabre. So when I finally got serious and dedicated myself to writing, this interest showed up big time. I'm a lifelong southern Californian who grew up with TV shows like The Twilight Zone and Alfred Hitchcock Presents. I am a graduate of the University of Redlands (the inspiration for Chapel Playhouse). In between Corvette outings with my husband and too much TV, I write paranormal mysteries with a splash of romance.
