Dennis Collins

Being born into a show business family sounds glamorous but I grew up hardly knowing my father because he spent so much time on the road. The long days that I spent reading gave me a fine appreciation for the written word. After a career in industry I turned my focus to writing and my only regret is not pursuing it earlier. But I'm here now and enjoying every minute of it. I live on the shore of Lake Huron and can draw inspiration from the ever changing beauty in front of me.

My first mystery novel, "The Unreal McCoy" was surprisingly successful and the follow up, "Turn Left at September" has been treated very kindly by the critics.

I write book reviews and a bi-monthly column for myshelf.com , a literary website.
