About the author

Colin Wilcox was driving from Portland to Seattle on a Sunday afternoon, just minding his own business, when three ideas collided in his mind and out came Bev and Julie Wilson, the protagonists of Sing for Me.

A week later he had 35,000 words, the rough sketch of their story, and his life changed.

Prior to Bev and Julie showing up, Colin had been happy writing help for a major software company. He loved explaining complex ideas in ways anyone could understand, and even more, he loved making people's lives easier.

And that's still cool, but tech writing has some serious competition now. Sing for Me has grown into a trilogy, with the second volume, The Ragged Echo just released, and the third, with a working title of The Noisy Souls under way.

As if that wasn't enough, he's also busy with a domestic terrorism thriller titled, Modest Comfort, and a piece of historical fiction that turns Rembrandt into a bumbling, unintentional action hero.

Colin lives and works in Seattle. He has two amazing small kids, and an even more amazing wife, the beautiful Michelle.
