About Linda J Pifer
Background
Born in Ohio, I've been writing since a child, for myself, for others, for work, for play.
I trained and worked as a nurse, did a three-year enlistment with the U.S. Navy with honorable discharge. I ran a needlecraft shop in Tampa and designed hand-painted, custom needlepoint canvas before returning to the hospital setting as a licensed healthcare risk manager.
Roots
Always intrigued by the number of diverse paths available in life, I made choices without regret.
My first nonfiction story, The Cloverfinder, was written about my uncle in Ohio and, published in a national magazine, it provided me a push back to writing.
Love of family led me into genealogy research and it appears in several of my books. Discovering that I have 29% DNA from the U.K. explains why Scotland keeps appearing in my earlier books.
Style
I'm a
go-with-what-inspires-you Writer.
Genres include: Fiction romance; Historical romance; Cozy mystery; Christian.
A lot of me goes into the characters along with people I've met.
First-person and third person are favorite points-of-view.
You'll note that open countrysides and nature appear frequently in my stories; you just can't get the country out of this girl.
I enjoy surprising my readers, such as keeping a character's true identity secret until discovered later (Copper Swift -The Windows Trilogy).
Reviewers have described my writing as gentle, having a creative, inherent closeness to reality and a knack for delightful detail.
