About Sherry Briscoe
A film buff and unapologetic believer in ghosts, Sherry Briscoe writes paranormal suspense and cozy mysteries where the dead don’t always stay quiet and the living often wish they had. Her stories blend myth, magic, and monsters—sometimes all before breakfast. As a kid, Sherry’s bedtime heroes were Alfred Hitchcock and Edgar Allan Poe, and she’s still convinced The Twilight Zone made excellent bedtime reading. (Her parents may disagree.) Armed with degrees in Journalism, Photography, and Adult Education, Sherry found a way to merge all her creative obsessions—writing, teaching, and telling stories that make you sleep with one eye open. She lives in the Pacific Northwest with her very patient husband—provider of chai tea lattes and lemon drop martinis—and a Burmese cat who insists on sharing her popcorn, pizza, and the occasional beer. A world traveler, U.S. Army veteran, and tireless writing advocate, Sherry has taught at Writers at Harriman, where she now serves as Director of the summer writing camp for high school students. She’s also the founder of the Idaho Screenwriters Association, and has been active in the Idaho Writers Guild, Romance Writers of America, and Idaho Sisters in Crime, and is also a professional speaker and workshop facilitator.
