About the Author

Before penning her first novel Heather (Jane) Johnson picked strawberries, scooped ice cream, poorly mended opera costumes, waited tables(also poorly), sold children's books, made and decorated wedding cakes, managed bookstores, co-started and ran a book fair company, ran a book department for a chain of gift stores, poured wine in a tasting room, directed activities at an assisted-living center, taught (and still teaches) English as a second language, and attempted to sell American cookies from a bike in Foligno, Italy. She can be found at www.cookicletta.com providing alternative ways for Italians to learn English while simultaneously promoting the superiority of certain American desserts.
