Carol Smith

Carol lives near Richmond in Virginia, USA. She has a husband and two cats adopted from animal shelters (the cats not the husband).

The desire to write struck her out of the blue one day in 2014. To date, she's written magazine articles, fiction and nonfiction books, two collections, one of Halloween haiku poetry and one of short stories and poems, two children's books, and stories that are included in anthologies. She's always listening for her Muse's next big idea.

Besides writing, Carol enjoys singing, tutors adult learners in reading, and investigates the paranormal. She taught earth science, acted in community theatre, and worked in information technology and in broadcasting as a commercial radio DJ.
