She was the first mate of a passenger ferry, the editor of Swine Quarterly, and reviewed books for Publishers Weekly and the Tampa Tribune. She reported on sports for the St. Peterburg Times, and did a short stint in corporate product development.
Her short fiction has appeared in The Stonecoast Review, Rosebud, Halfway Down the Stairs, and The Dead Mule School of Southern Literature.
When not writing, she can be found racing small sailboats with her husband Jeff Linton. Together they have won the Lightning Class World Championship twice, and the Flying Scot North American Championship six times.
She is working on her next novel.
