Cindy Falteich

A former PRCA rodeo queen and horse trainer, I earned a BS degree from Iowa State University that I put to appropriate use as a professional stand-up comic. My subsequent resume includes a number of supporting and administrative positions that helped me develop the skills necessary to start and run a successful personal and financial services business that catered to a limited number of affluent clients. Years later I sold my company to a larger conglomerate, a financial arrangement that allowed me to delve into writing full-time. Since then I've amassed a body of work that includes blogs, novels, screenplays, eye strain and an ass as flat as my office chair.

I live near Philadelphia, Pennsylvania USA with my horseshoer husband, a homeschooled son and a cast of flawed pets. When not at work on a manuscript, I train ponies to ride and drive and ingest large amounts of chocolate. But never fear, it's at least 60% cacao so I'm sure it's medicinal.
