W. C. Baxter (who is better known by her pen name W. Charlene Ammons) was born and raised in Northwest Florida as the daughter of the local chief of police. After a twelve year career in law enforcement, she obtained her Master's Degree in Library Science in May 2018.

In her spare time, she enjoys DIY work on her childhood home, dancing around the kitchen to the Delta Blues, traveling, attending concerts and writing in her journals. She currently resides in the Florida Panhandle.

Baxter has penned three novels under the pen name W. Charlene Ammons. Those novels: The Plan, The Lesson, and Gypsy Soul are all part of a series entitled "The Honeysuckle Chronicles". Her first novella, Absconder, was released in 2014 and the follow up, Maneater, released in November 2016. Those novellas were also written under the pen name W. Charlene Ammons.

In 2013, she was also included in a collaborative piece of fiction with local authors entitled Tales From Beyond. Ammons' short story included in the book is titled The Crossroads.

Baxter was named as an IPPY book award nominee for her latest work, Maneater.

In the past few years, Baxter has focused her time on her blog, "Guilty By Reason of Being Wendy" and has recently entered the world of songwriting. She is currently working on several non-fiction books she hopes to release soon, including a book of poetry and a self-help/inspirational book in which she details how she survived in the years following her divorce, giving hope to others who are going through similar struggles.
