Judi McCoy

Judi's been published for eight years. Her first romance, I Dream of You, won Waldenbooks best selling debut novel of 2001. Since then she's published five more books for Kensington, seven for Avon/Harper Collins, and her romantic suspense, A Matter of Trust, was a launch book for Crescent Moon Press. She now writes romantic mystery for NAL's Obsidian line.
All royalties earned from Hounding the Pavement, her first novel in the dog walker series, will go to Best Friends in Kanab, UT, the largest no-kill shelter in the US. Judi is an avid animal activist and will do anything she can to promote canine welfare. If you're holding a rescue event, contact her to see how she can help.
She teaches the yearly two day 'aspiring author' course at the Romantic Times convention and speaks to writing groups across the country. A retired women's gymnastic judge, she resides on Virginia's peaceful eastern shore with her husband and three pocket pooches. Rudy, the star of the dog walker series, passed away, but he lives on in her heart and in her novels. In her spare time, she raises orchids and dreams of seeing Ellie, Rudy, and the dogs they walk on television or the big screen.
