Andrea J.Johnson is a freelance entertainment writer for the women's lifestyle website Popsugar. Her love for insider gossip has led her to take real-life headlines and turn them into mind-bending mysteries. Her cozy mystery novel, Poetic Justice, finds inspiration in Delaware's 2014 drug lab scandal and uses Andrea's background as a court reporter to explore what would happen if the trial's stenographer took the law into her own hands. In addition to being a writer, Andrea is a certified shorthand reporter for the State of California and a member of the National Court Reporters Association. She currently resides on the Delmarva Peninsula near the Chesapeake and Delaware Bays, which is the backdrop for her new series. She is also a member of Mystery Writers of America, Romance Writers of America, and the Eastern Shore Writers Association. Moreover, she holds a copyediting certification from UC San Diego and an M.F.A. in Writing Popular Fiction from Seton Hill University. She has also written several articles on the craft of writing for such websites such as LitReactor, Funds for Writers, and DIY MFA. When Andrea isn't developing her stories, she enjoys cuddling up with a piping hot mug of ginger tea and poring over the latest supermarket tabloids.
