Eaton, J. C.: - "A former teacher and middle school principal from upstate New York, Ann always had a passion for writing. As a sideline to her career in education, Ann wrote for a number of trade journals before turning her attention to mysteries. She got her feet wet writing YA time travel novels and then joined forces with her husband, James Clapp, to write cozy mysteries under the pen name of J.C. Eaton. To date, they are penning three mystery series - The Sophie Kimball Mysteries, The Wine Trail Mysteries, and the Marcie Rayner Mysteries. The couple resides with their four-legged friends in Sun City West, Arizona, where sunshine doesn't need to be shoveled"
