C.K.CRIGGER'S
WRITING
PAGES
C.K. Crigger lives in beautiful Eastern Washington with her husband, three feisty little dogs and a reclusive Persian cat. She loves history, fantasy and the unexplained, and often blends these elements in her stories. She is a member of Western Writers of America and had the honor of hosting the organization's annual convention in Spokane Valley, WA in June of 2005. Her short story, Aldy Neal's Ghost, was a 2007 Spur Award finalist. Black Crossing was a 2008 Eppie Award Winner for best Western/Historical. Letter of the Law is a 2009 Spur Award finalist in the Audio Books category.
Raised on a wheat ranch on the Coeur d'Alene Indian Reservation, her early years form the background for her love of western stories, writing, and the wide open spaces. She writes about free-spirited people who break from their standard roles, whether living in the past, the present, or the future.
BOOK REVIEWS: From time to time I'll review the books I'm reading--and I read a lot! Most westerns are reviewed in WWA's Roundup Magazine, but you'll find mysteries and an occasional SciFi/Fantasy on my blog.
