Roz Weedman lives in Frankenmuth, Michigan. She worked for thirteen years as a legal secretary, continued her education at the University of Michigan, and eventually retired from her position as a professor of English after twenty years of focusing on teaching writing and American literature. For fun, she reads cozy mysteries and spy novels. She also has the privilege of living with the real-life Boston terrier, Cookie, who attends to her many duties in town. Roz loves playing mah-jongg with her friends and grandkids, always considering Bubbe Fischer's advice: "If you can't win, don't lose." If you're in Frankenmuth, her white minivan with the Mahj license plate will be parked askew somewhere nearby. Stop in and say hi!
