T.A. Williams

Firstly, my name isn't T A. It's Trevor. I write under the androgynous name T A Williams because 65% of books are read by women. In my first book, one of the (female) characters suggests the imbalance is due to the fact that men spend too much time getting drunk and watching football. I couldn't possibly comment. Ask my wife...
I've written all sorts: thrillers, historical novels, short stories and now I'm enjoying myself hugely Cozy Mysteries. I lived and worked in Italy for a number of years, married an Italian, and fell in love with the country.

Are you looking for a break from the downer side of life? Me too! That’s why I write lighthearted cozy mysteries designed to lift your spirits while balancing the scales of justice, at least within the pages of my books. My stories always feature sharp-witted heroines who sometimes feel like they’re in over their heads (don’t we all?), a cast of quirky characters you’ll enjoy getting to know, and furry friends with surprising magical abilities. Magic always adds the perfect touch of excitement to a story. Don’t you agree?

Usually, you can find me locked away in my writing room, dreaming up new ways for my magical animals to solve murders (or help to solve murders, or try to help to solve murders, you can never be sure with those critters).

Linda A. Lavid is a late-blooming writer who got off on the wrong track early--she barely passed English and typing in high school. After subsequent years of wanting to write but not having a clue, she dove in, purchased a computer, and finished her first novel. It took two years and was awful. After more years of false starts and hair-pulling, she segued into writing short stories, learned a ton, and went on to write a lot more stuff. After thirty-five years, she now feels she has the bull by the horns. Her only task is to keep breathing. She's kind of old at this point.
