Hi there!
You don’t really know me, so let me tell you a bit about myself. First off, Ann Kyner is a pen name. My alter/real world name is under wraps for a little while. It’s a safety thing.
When I am not writing about Melinda Payson (or thinking about her, or setting up the harrowing plots for future mysteries) I can be found out in my garden. It’s a great way to zen out. You know what else is a great way to zen out? Quilting. I do that too.
My background is a very fertile resource for Melinda and her cohort. I have a BA in History, an MA in Political Science, and taught in a university for a few years. I attempted a PhD program but ended up abandoning it. I also have been a public safety reporter in a small city.
I look forward to sharing Melinda’s story with you, and hope to have the first book published this next year.
