L.J. Breedlove is a former journalist writing mysteries and thrillers about what she knows: complicated people, small towns, big cities, cops, reporters, politicians, assorted bad guys.
"I write about religion and politics. About race and gender. I believe in the journalism axiom: Comfort the afflicted, and afflict the comfortable. To which the labor organizer Mother Jones was supposed to have added: And in general raise hell. That works for me."
L.J. grew up on a cattle ranch and then went to college to be an oceanographer. She decided getting seasick was not a good trait for an oceanographer to have, and discovered journalism instead — a field that liked people who asked questions!
As a reporter and editor, she worked in Alaska, Oregon, Idaho, Texas, Washington, D. C. Then she got homesick for the Pacific Northwest and came home to work with college newspapers and teach journalism.
She is an over-educated, bleeding heart liberal with a penchant for heroes such as Jack Reacher. She isn't particularly bothered by the inconsistency.
You can follow her on Twitter @ljbreedlove for her political stuff, or on Facebook ljbreedlove for her writing life. Best place to find her -- besides a local coffee shop -- is at ljbreedlove.com. You can sign up for her email newsletter there. Or read her blog, snark included, and check out all her books.

Can there be a third way?
There exists a set of myths and prophesies known as the Wolf's Codex — the Okami Kōdekkusu, probably the only written history of the shifter species. It comes from the before times, it's said. Lost for millennia, maybe more, most people dismiss it as a myth itself.
But some things are known. In an oral culture like the shifters, stories have been passed down from storyteller to storyteller. The Codex is supposed to have predicted a third way to come for shifters.
First way — Shifter warlords led troops of shifters into battle for land and resources. Women of power were forced to serve, channeling their power at the warlord's command.
Second way —In current times, power resides with the Alpha, and a Council of Alphas mediates disputes without warfare, making the top Alphas very powerful indeed with no one to check their abuses.
And the third way. No one knows what is meant by that — neither those who fear it and are willing to destroy the Hat Island pack to stop it, nor those who want to see it come. But they all seem to think Abby Stafford might be the one to lead them there.
The Okami Kōdekkusu may have some answers. And now, one man might know where it is.
The race is on.
