Before she let her writing go to the dogs, Susan J. Kroupa won awards for her fiction from such places as the Utah Arts Council Contest, Writers of the Future and the Deep South Writing Competition. Her stories have appeared in Realms of Fantasy and in a variety of anthologies, including Bruce Coville's Shapeshifters. Now she is perhaps best known for her Doodlebugged Mysteries, a gentle cozy series featuring the irrepressible, obedience-impaired sniffer-dog, Doodle.
After sixteen years in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains, Susan has returned to Utah where she lives with her husband and Toby, a trouble-prone poodle. You can learn more about her on her webpage, https://www.susankroupa.com.
