About this author

Vickie writes romantic suspense. She's the author of eight books, including The Evil Trilogy, the Pelican Pointe series and the Skye Cree novels.

A beachgoer and ocean-lover, she makes her home in Southern California. When she isn't working on her next manuscript or screenplay, she loves to spend time outdoors.

As a kid she followed her dad around in the garden. Because of that she does her best to grow things. She loves reading all kinds of books, both fiction and non-fiction, loves to play video games, and enjoys watching football with the hubby. If you've ever read any of her books, you know she's a die-hard Raider fan, which means she has the patience of Job.

She lives for chocolate, but then who doesn't? She'll kill for a cup of coffee...more

Sherry Fundin Hi Vickie. I just posted my first review on my new blog. I had been waiting for a book like yours, one that would knock my socks off. I will also be posting it on Goodreads and Amazon, but if you would like to visit my blog, the shortlink is:

Why did you feel burned out?

I went through a defeated period after an agent kept my manuscript for 15 months and then cut me loose because she couldn't get anyone to bite. You see, I was certain after keeping it for such a long time, I'd get published. When that didn't happen, I nosedived. But eventually I came out of it.

What I learned is you really have to write for yourself. Write because it makes you happy. Write because if you didn't it would feel like you lost a part of yourself. At least, that's the way it is for me. And absolutely never let anyone tell you you shouldn't write.


I bought your book by the way on Apple for my iPad. I'm about a third of the way into it and it's good. I'm enjoying it very much.


Vickie McKeehan Wow! Thank you! What a wonderful article. I've got to connect that to my Facebook page some way.

Is that really the impression I give? Because I love the fact that you picked up on that. I think possibly that might be the first time anyone has. It's what I set out to do but I don't think anyone's noticed, except maybe you. lol

Thanks so much. Any time I can be of help, don't hesitate to ask or bring something to my attention.

Thanks again.

Vickie
