Meet the Maker
I've been an artist and crafter all my life, and I've also worked as a newspaper journalist and a university reference librarian. My artwork is usually abstract or almost abstract. See more of my artwork at cjshane/art. I also write fiction. Take a look at the Letty Valdez mysteries (Desert Jade is #1 in the Letty series), the Cat Miranda mysteries (Kissed is #1 in the Cat series), and Iron Horse mysteries (Take Four is #1 in Iron Horse). I'll be adding more books to the series. Find them on your favorite book retailer (Amazon, Kobo, Apple, Barnes & Noble, etc.) ~ C.J. Shane
