Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
About Me and My Book:
I am a full-time mystery/suspense author with three published novels. Whale Song is my latest release, published by a fantastic company called Kunati Book Publishers. Whale Song, which launched Kunati's UNA trade paperback imprint, deals with the highly controversial issue of assisted suicide.
http://www.whalesongbook.com

My other novels are Divine Intervention (great for fans of J. D. Robb, Kay Hooper and Iris Johansen), and The River, which has been compared to Michael Crichton's Timeline and Dan Brown's Angels and Demons.

I recently finished my next novel, Children of the Fog, and will be working on three other novels.

Whale Song and The River have received a lot of movie interest. Whale Song is being read by about a dozen companies, half from Hollywood, while The River is already in negotiation with a film producer.

I was a contestant in the new reality TV game show 'A Total Write-Off!' with host/comedian Barbara North. The show aired in Canada on Access, Canadian Learning Television and BookTelevision in April 2007. It was a blast and an absolutely crazy rush!! :)

I was a journalist as a teen, and wrote short stories and poetry as well. But fiction always was and remains my true passion. Every character, every world I create comes alive for me.
