I’m an award-winning feature writer and newspaper editor who continues to work in daily journalism, now with a hint of mystery and mayhem on the side. And — oh yes! — I love horses.

Fanta Delaney is passionate about horses. She’s also a budding journalist and wanna-be interior designer. Not to mention looking for love — usually in the wrong places. Add amateur sleuth to the mix and find out what happens in the Fanta Delaney series of cozy mysteries!

Coming Soon!

Extra! Extra! Read all about it!
