Linda Summers Posey -- mystery short story author, novelist, writing coach and marketing consultant -- author of the Stacy McReady mysteries
Background
Information
I've been writing seriously for more than 20 years, much of that time in technical writing and marketing communications. I've also written more than 200 published articles. My first love as a reader has always been mystery, and I'm proud that my first published works of fiction are two mystery short stories:
"Who Put the Armadillo in the Avocado Dip?" in HARDBROILED, an anthology of food-related private eye stories (amazon.com, bn.com, walmart.com) -- a comedy introducing my protagonist Stacy McReady, animal lover, movie buff and wanna-be private eye.
"Comeuppance" in TECHNO-NOIR, an anthology of technology-related short stories (amazon.com).
Stacy is also the star of my mystery novel, Don't Bet Against Murder, which I hope will be the first of a series. Watch this site for details about future stories and other creative ventures.
