My agent sold Next Girl to Die based on the synopsis and first chapter to a publisher, but that was not the end of my journey. I wrote a few romantic suspense projects that I immediately shelved, then started to plan Next Girl to Die. I originally signed with my agent for a YA project, and never actually had any plans to write Adult mysteries, thrillers, or suspense-that is, until my agent recommended that I try it. The road to publication is twisty at best–tell us about some of your twists. Keep reading to find out how you can win a signed copy of Dea’s debut novel Next Girl to Die, the first book in the Calderwood Cases series (out now from Thomas & Mercer!). You can find Dea on Twitter or on her website. She now resides somewhere between Disney and the swamp with her son. She later spent time living on both coasts and traveling the United States before finally putting down roots in central Florida. She studied computer science and political science at the University of Central Oklahoma. Please give a warm Debutante Ball welcome to this week’s guest, Dea Poirier!ĭea Poirier was raised in Edmond, Oklahoma, where she found her passion during a creative writing course.
