Evy Journey, SPR (Self Publishing Review) Independent Woman Author awardee, is a writer, a wannabe artist, and a flâneuse. Her pretensions to being a flâneuse means she wishes she lives in Paris where people have perfected the art of aimless roaming. But she’s only had the chance to live there as a transient.

In a previous life, armed with a Ph.D. and fascinated by the psyche, she researched and shepherded the development of mental health programs. And wrote like an academic. Not a good thing if you want to sound like a normal person. Worse if beautiful prose seduces you and you continue to be plagued by existential angst—an out-of-fashion preoccupation in this era of cyber relationships.

So, she’s turned to writing mostly happy fiction, believing it’s an antidote. For now, she’s found refuge in invoking the spirit of Jane Austen and spinning tales of love, loss, and finding one’s way—stories into which she weaves mystery or intrigue.
