In the dark spaces of j.a.kazimer's bookcase, hidden behind literary classic and the occasional book of poetry (unread, of course), is a well-loved  collection of over 5,000 mystery, urban fantasies, suspense, thrillers, romance, and humorous novels.

When j.a. isn't reading, she spend her time writing urban fantasies and crime fiction with a dark comic twist. Originally from Cleveland, Ohio, she escaped at a young age, and now lives in Denver, Colorado, where she received a master's degree in forensic psychology, and has worked as a PI, bartender, and most recently at the Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics.
