About The Authors
Janet Groene began her writing career when she was hired as a stringer for her hometown newspaper while still in junior high school. Since then she has written thousands of newspaper and magazine pieces, and more than a dozen books. When Janet and her husband Gordon sold their home and furniture and headed south, her typewriter and his cameras came along. It was the start of their new life as a travel writer and photographer team. After traveling full-time for 10 years in their sailboat and RV, they settled in Central Florida. Janet is a member of the Society of American Travel Writers; Gordon belongs to the North American Travel Journalists Association. Both are members of the American Society of Journalists & Authors.
