Her Private Eye

Shannon Hollis' Bio

The shape and texture of words have fascinated me since I learned to read. I got my first positive review at the age of eight on a school composition (it was about a ghost in a graveyard, if I remember), and completed my first novel at seventeen. It was a shameless Nancy Drew ripoff, but the editor said I could tell a story, so that was all I needed. I have an Honors B.A. in Creative Writing from the University of California, and an M.A. in writing from Seton Hill University in Pennsylvania.

I started writing romance in 1991, and got serious in 1994 when I joined the Romance Writers of America. I belong to the San Francisco Area Chapter and the Vancouver Island Chapter.

When I'm not writing, I love to make historical costumes for dances and cons, beachcomb, play piano and harp, and other incredibly useful pursuits.
