Nancy J. Cohen

My love for storytelling began as a reader. I immersed myself in imaginary worlds of fiction while I grew up. As my reading habits evolved, I got the urge to write a story of my own.

My first published books were in the sci-fi/fantasy romance genre. Then I switched to writing cozy mysteries set in Florida. The Bad Hair Day series contain a touch of humor and romance, which are elements I look for in my reading choices.

On this site, you’ll find details about my books, reviews, contests and more. As a Florida author, the tropical images represent the settings that populate my works. So sit back, imagine yourself in a lounge chair on the beach sipping a rum punch, and explore my world.
