Growing up in the military, Janeen O'Kerry lived in many places -- California, Germany, Washington D.C., Texas, and Ohio. Like many writers, she's held several different jobs -- everything from computer programmer to horseback riding instructor.

Janeen's writing career began in 1984 when she sold the first of over 100 non-fiction articles written for the national and regional horse magazines.

She now has the good fortune to write full-time and lives in beautiful Arizona with her family, her cat, and her five-gaited American Saddlebred pleasure horse.
