About

Deanna writes paranormal romance, paranormal women’s fiction, and urban fantasy. She also writes cozy mystery under the pen name of Ramey James with her bestie Angie Ramey. She has also previously written cozy mysteries under the pen name of Lucy Quinn with Violet Vaughn.

She is a native Californian. After spending five years traveling in an RV, she and her husband moved into an adorable cottage in a small town outside of New Orleans. After about six months, Deanna was convinced their 1907 home was haunted. Late at night as she penned Haunted on Bourbon Street, she often heard footsteps throughout the old house. Luckily, the spirit appears to be harmless, as he/she has never done more than make a little noise and possibly smoke a few cigars. However, if the ghost ever shows up in a dream, you’ll be the first to hear of it. Smudge stick anyone?

When she isn’t writing, she is often goofing off with her husband in New Orleans and playing with her two dogs.
