About the Author
Justin here. I've been writing all kinds of books for a long time now, through years in LA growing up, then the 80s in New York, the 90s and 00s in Seattle, and now, here in Sayulita, Nayarit, Mexico. I live here with my beautiful wife, Donna Day, and our smart, charming, princess of a daughter Jade. I do a lot of surfing these days, and watch the tropical birds in the mango trees across the vacant lot. When I was in New York, I worked as an architectural journalist, and eventually wrote a bunch of books about interior design and architecture. I also did some traveling as a journalist, and it was on one of those trips that I found the inspiration for Lucy Ripken, my amateur mystery sleuth. Lucy is a hybrid of Donna and me, a semi-tough-talking contemporary "broad" with a heart of gold and a loft in SoHo. Not unlike the one Donna and I lived in until we fled for the less stressful environs of Seattle in 1991. In Seattle I kept on writing all kinds of books, and as was my habit, hanging around music venues. Eventually that turned into another book, called Grunge Seattle, a kind of cultural travel guide to Seattle in the early 90s.After the first Lucy Ripken, I wrote six more. They are all available at Amazon, as are the architecture and design books. These days I spend a lot of time riding waves, and writing about surfing among other things. You can check out my surfing column here: http://www.elsayulero.com/channel/44/stories. And the books are all sitting on the electronic shelf. Have a look. See you in the waves.
