Author of humorous fantasy whodunits full of mythical misfits and magical mishaps. A BIT ABOUT ME... Many moons ago I was a scientist in a neuroscience lab where I got to play with brains and illegal drugs. Now, I take wickedly strong tea and turn it into comic fantasy whodunits full of mythical misfits and magical mishaps that I hope give you a giggle. My tales run the gamut from.... * The ever-expanding Cassie Black Trilogy with its wryly humorous paranormal mysteries to * The comical cozy fantasy mysteries in The Circus of Unusual Creatures, and from * Light-hearted novellas where I use magical realism to celebrate my love of books to * Short fiction in which I really flex my myth-loving and humor-craving muscles! When I’m not creating worlds or killing off characters, I can be found gardening, planning my next travel adventure, concocting some sort of mess in the kitchen, or working as an unpaid servant to two very spoiled cats. THE QUICK AS YOU CAN STORY BEHIND MY BOOKS... My fascination for myths, history, and how they interweave inspired my two historical fantasy series, The Osteria Chronicles and my second series, Domna. But all those ancient myths and angst-ridden heroes got a bit too serious for someone with a strange sense of humor and odd way of looking at the world. So, while sitting at my grandmother’s funeral, my brain came up with an idea for a contemporary fantasy story that could be filled with magic, mystery, snarky humor, and the dead who just won’t stay dead. That idea turned into The Cassie Black Trilogy, which has turned into a fan favorite. Then, because writer brains are weird, a simple bit of local (Portland, Oregon), elephant-based history somehow morphed into a "hilarious" cozy fantasy series with a detecting dragon. So, if you like comic fantasy whodunits that mix in laughs with murderous mayhem, mythical beasts, and a staggering variety of omelets, you’ll find them in my Circus of Unusual Creatures mysteries!
