A propos de ma bibliothèque

As can be seen from my library list, I favor mystery books and literary fiction. My favorite mystery authors include Craig Johnson, James Lee Burke, and Tony Hillerman. I also belong to a reading group, which allows me to read other than mystery -- something writers should do because, as the saying among writers goes, reading is writing. This means I not only read to expand my library but also to learn from other writers. Many of the books in my library are selections from my book group.

A propos de moi

Lutricia "Lu" Clifton writes novels for both children and adults. Most of her adult novels are set in southeastern Oklahoma and include a mingling of Native American cultural beliefs and traditions. She became interested in those cultural traditions while tracing her mother’s Choctaw roots.

She was born in and spent her early childhood in southeastern Oklahoma, then moved to the Texas Panhandle with her family. She completed an associate degree at Amarillo Junior College in Texas and a B.A. and M.A. in English at Colorado State University. She now resides in Illinois with a gray tabby named Mary Jane that she rescued from a shelter. Her oldest son and wife life in Oregon and her youngest son and wife live in Illinois.
