BIOGRAPHY

Jerry, a two-time winner of The Indie Book of the Day Award, writes fast paced “tweener” mystery books (tough mystery stories that follow the cozy conventions of no graphic sex and no cussing), all published as e-books on Amazon Kindle with six also published as paperback versions. Several of the books introduce the readers to South America, a region where he has lived and worked that is a long way from home for most English speakers. He and his wife Elaine lived previously in Salta, Argentina and Montevideo, Uruguay. Jerry and Elaine breed prize-winning German shorthaired pointer do... gs; Elaine also provides technical advice for Jerry’s dog-related novels like The Deadly Dog Show, Hunter Down, Roger and the Cancelled Czech, and Abra Cadaver, as well as editing for all of the books. read more

      • Yes, in all my books. The settings are authentic because with only a very few exceptions (eg, Diego Garcia Island in "The Origin of Murder) I've been there and done that. I sometimes do some research to update local geography, but things feel more real to me if I've been there than if the Internet has. And, all of my books featuring dogs draw on my wife's experiences as a breeder and trainer of German shorthaired pointers.

      • Yes, I read them all. Bad, good, or neutral, I approach them all the same. Someone bought this book, which certainly gives them the right to have and express their opinion. Is there anything in these comments I should think about that might make me a better writer? I'd rather have a bad review with useful feedback than no review at all.

      • Writing is hard work. Editing is even harder to do. If it isn't fun, it's even harder.
        "Writing in your spare time, younger self, is the best way to keep it fun. Don't be in any hurry to quit your real job!"

      • I've been writing and publishing scientific papers and grants all of my adult life (a long time). I've been publishing mysteries for eight years. With 17 Roger and Suzanne series mystery books published so far, I still haven't quit that regular job.
