SHALLA THE ARTIST (and writer)

Q&A with Michele Scott Author for Berkley Prime Crime


Who is Michele Scott?

Author of the new Wine Lover’s Mystery Series and Quarter Horse Mystery Series for Berkley Prime Crime,
Michele Scott started writing long before she published.



While her interest in writing spanned childhood and resulted in studying journalism at USC, it took eight complete manuscripts and 12 years for her to sell her debut novel, Murder Uncorked. Then, in ten months, she sold another five books, blending both her life-long love of horses and her experience in the wine distribution industry into two hot new series.

She is currently working on two new books, the first Van & Brown Mystery, a series and Bethany's Brood, Children of the Sun II. She complied and edited the anthology, Secrets, Fact or Fiction?, Oxcart Press 2005.
