VJ Schultz

VJ Schultz, aka Vera Jane Goodin Schultz, a graduate of University of Missouri-Rolla, has wanted to write books ever since she could read them herself. She enjoys writing in multiple genres including mystery, romance, and fantasy.

VJ and her photographer husband John live in Missouri with their three spoiled inside cats, one less-spoiled outside cat, and one happy parakeet. When she isn't writing or teaching writing, she takes photos, reads, and does Tai Chi. A member of Sisters in Crime, VJ is also a founding member of Sleuths' Ink, a mystery and suspense writing group.

After a multitude of published nonfiction articles and a couple of nonfiction books, she was pleased to dive feet first into fiction with the publication of DEATH OF BIGFOOT & OTHER TALES. With the publication of TRUTH OR DARE & OTHER TALES, she let her imagination go wild. UNDERCOVER LOVE & OTHER TALES is a collection of pure, sweet romantic tales she enjoyed writing and is pleased to share with fans.

In VERA'S VERSION, VJ revisits her humor columns which were published in newspapers during the 90s. The topics are still good for a chuckle.

With THE GREAT EASTER EGG HUNT, VJ introduced her first book for children. She wrote the story in verse. The illustrations are watercolor-like photos taken by her. She says her husband's photography enthusiasm has rubbed off on her.

Who knows what she will dabble in next?

Here is the update: the answer is

--creating coloring books (COLOR ME HAPPY)

--designing journals (such as THE STORY OF OUR LOVE)

--writing a goal setting guide which is a calendar/journal (HOW TO EAT AN ELEPHANT - 2016)

Stay tuned…because more coloring books, fiction stories for adults and children, journals, and other creative projects are floating around inside her head. You can only imagine...
