We are thrilled to welcome Teresa Inge as a regular blogger to Writers Who Kill! Take it away Teresa.
I live in southeastern
Virginia with my husband A.J. and dog Luke, a brown, mixed-lab shepherd. Living
near Virginia Beach and the Outer Banks of North Carolina has advantages. Beach
days, fresh seafood, and scenic views make it a beautiful place to live.
What
writing organizations do you belong to?
I am a
lifetime member of Sisters in Crime and president of the SinC Mystery by the
Sea chapter. I belong to the Short Mystery Fiction Society, Hampton Roads
Writers, and Virginia Writers Club.
What are
your last publications?
"Maid of
Murder" appears in First Comes Love, Then Comes Murder on June 4. The story
features wine shop owner Lainey Gentry who discovers a dead body in her wine
room and tries to clear her name after being accused of murdering a bridesmaid.
Before that, my short story "What’s a Little Murder Between Friends" appeared in
Malice, Matrimony, & Murder last year.
Do you
have a writing process?
Since I work
full-time, I often write in my car during lunch. Some weather conditions that I
encounter while writing are snowfall, pouring rain, thunderstorms, and heat. But
mostly, the climate is mild, and I find it to be the most peaceful part of my day
to write. I also write after work and on weekends at home and at my OBX beach
house.
What
brings you to WWK?
I love
reading the Writers Who Kill blog, so I’m thrilled to be part of it. Many of
the bloggers are author friends who are great writers.
Tell us about yourself.
By day, I
work for a global financial firm as an assistant, notary administrator, and
reporter. When not working or writing I attend classic car shows with my 1955 Torch
Red, Ford Thunderbird. I also have grown daughters and a granddaughter.
What do
you write?
I write short
crime fiction and cozy mysteries. My protagonists are female business owners and
amateur sleuths who solve crime and murder. The stories appear in over a dozen
anthologies that include Virginia is For Mysteries, Mutt Mysteries,
and Costal Crimes.
Welcome to WWK. Love the red Thunderbird!

ReplyDeleteThanks, Annette! I'm happy to be part of the group!

ReplyDeleteYour dog sounds much like one my brother-in-law found as a puppy in the middle of nowhere (he was a mine inspector for the state of West Virginia, checking on abandoned mines.) He says it's quite obvious, even without papers, that the pup, which of course he brought home, is a pure bred West Virginia Brown Dog.
I love that about brown dogs. Their color is beautiful! I'm also looking forward to reading your blogs on WWK!
DeleteWelcome aboard, Teresa!! You have to take us all for a ride in that beautiful red car!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! I would love to drive the T-Bird to Malice to cruise with y’all! I'm also happy to be a part of such a supportive blog group!
DeleteWelcome Teresa, Love the T-Bird
ReplyDeleteThank you Kait! I also love the interview questions!
DeleteWelcome aboard, Teresa! It's so nice you've joined us.

ReplyDeleteTeresa, your car is beautiful! And I'm so excited you're joining Writers Who Kill. I envy you your OBX beach house. I got to stay at the Outer Banks one weekend many years ago and I though it was a lovely place. (I had to remove my previous comment to correct a typo.)
ReplyDeleteThank you! I'm looking forward to being a part of the group!
DeleteWe are thrilled to have you join us at WWK.
