Mindy Quigley is the author of two cozy mystery series: the Deep Dish Mysteries (St. Martin's Press) and the Mount Moriah Mysteries. Her short stories have won awards, including the 2018 Artemis Journal/Lightbringer Prize.

Rowling. She lives in Virginia, with her Civil War history professor husband, their children, and their idiosyncratic miniature Schnauzer.
