Winnie Winkle

Winnie Winkle is a fabulous Central Florida broad who swills bourbon, likes dogs and cats, and practices yoga, but not with any particular grace.

But, since she's not dead yet, she'll keep penning fun stuff to rock your reading chair.

A 30+ year Florida resident, Winnie splits her time between Daytona Beach Shores and Mt. Dora. She prefers writing beach-side as much as she can because, if we’re baring our souls here, the ocean is a mighty muse and there’s only so much one can expect from coffee.
