Claudia Chianese

Claudia Chianese and her husband, Bob, retired to Florida in 2008 and she started writing behind closed doors. After reading a newspaper ad for Florida Writer Association she was inspired to attend the City Island Library meetings where she learned to write and start blogging.

Three of her short stories, Acerbic, Wheels of Circumstance and First Step have been published in Florida Writer Association's anthology collections.

Claudia graduated with a bachelor's degree in education from the State University of New York in 1970 and has a master's degree in education from the City University of New York Herbert Lehman College.

She blogs on Wordpress. Morningside Drive is her first novel. But a second novel is dancing around her mind.
