A New York Times bestseller, as well as a former reporter for the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Mary Kay Andrews is one of Savannah’s most well-respected and highly-praised authors. She began her journalism career in Savannah after Graduating from the University of Georgia with a B.A. in newspaper journalism, working on the murder trials that inspired the book and movie, Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil. “I think my development as a writer has been a gradual evolution,” says Andrews. “I come from a journalism background, so in my early novels, which were mysteries written under my own name, I concentrated on good plotting and puzzle solving. When I started writing novels, I gave myself permission to play with style and characterization, and to let my natural sense of humor come through in the books. Of course, I'm always trying to grow and change, to keep myself and my readers entertained.” Andrews’ past novels books include: Savannah Breeze, Blue Christmas, Hissy Fit, Little Bitty Lies, and Savannah Blues.
