About the Author
So here's where I regale you with a thing or two about me. 

My real name is Lori A. Witt.  I was born and raised in Seattle, spent five years in Norfolk, Virginia, then moved to Okinawa, Japan, at the end of 2008, where I currently live with my husband and two cats. 

I do not collaborate with any other authors (though I haven't ruled it out for future projects), but I do have the privilege of a writing partnership (or unholy alliance, depending upon who you ask) with Scottish writer Scarlett Parrish.  If I had to pinpoint one secret to my success, it's her, hands down.  There is nothing quite like having a skilled writer looking over one's shoulder, critiquing where it's needed and not pulling any punches.  She has also given me the ideas for a few of my books, including Between Brothers and Rules of Engagement, and bestowed titles on several of them.

I write full-time now, but in other times and places, I have worked in everything from customer service to lower management, from jewelry to car rentals to compressed gas equipment. 

I was a professional photographer at one point, but decided I enjoyed it more as a hobby than a career. My husband and I still enjoy photography and happen to live in a place that lends itself very well to a couple of shutterbugs:


The Lighthouse at Cape Zanpa:



A couple on the breakwater at Emerald Beach:


Beach on the south end of the island:


My husband at Cape Zanpa:


  Also, being a writer, I do have the requisite cat. Seems to be a requirement of us writerly types, so I've fulfilled my quota: (Annie is the large black one, Midget is the tabby...and they have taken over my desk)


Writing. Photography. Reading. Cats. Generally causing mischief and mayhem.  That's pretty much the extent of all that's interesting and exciting in my world.
