Susan Holmes penned her first story at the age of four. Despite the brevity (three pages of crayoned text) and the title ("Three Bears Visit New York City") her father gave it the same careful consideration he gave to C. F. Forester's Horatio Hornblower series. When he finished the story he announced, "You are going to be a writer."

Today, she is a professional writer, editor, college professor, and consultant. Her work appears in peer-reviewed journals and military publications, as well as print and digital media. The author and editor of two non-fiction books, she explores the world of dogs through her website http://dogmysteries.com and writes regional mysteries set in a boarding kennel.

Her third book, Deadly Ties, is the first in the Waterside Kennels mystery series and was inspired by the joyful adventures of 18 years with her beloved spaniel Alix. While writing the series she's joined Search and Rescue exercises, ventured through caves, forests and fields, and into dog parks, vet clinics, and kennels. She works closely with dog trainers, kennel owners, and veterinarians to create an environment dog lovers are sure to recognize and appreciate.
