Author Description A.J. O'Connell is a writer of literary adventure stories who enjoys using fancy words and making people laugh. <br /><br />"Beware the Hawk," which was published in 2012 by Vagabondage Press, is her first book. The sequel, "The Eagle and the Arrow," will be released in June of 2013. She's also published short stories in Independent Ink Magazine, on NPR's website and in several anthologies.<br /><br />She's always loved to read, which engendered a love of writing, and she's pursued writing in many different forms: as a teenager she was a bad poet, after college, she was a reporter, and after that, she obtained her MFA at a low-residency program, which taught her how to use strong verbs and also how to live for 10 days on an island with 100 other writers.<br /><br />She currently lives in Connecticut with her husband, dog and cat. She has an office in which she writes and drinks a lot of tea, which is a poor substitute for wine, but more socially acceptable at 11 a.m. on a Tuesday.<br /><br />She is also a member of Sisters in Crime New England.
