S.M. Arthur Fiction (mostly mystery) non-fiction Adult and YA
Thanks for visiting my site. I am S.M. Arthur and live in Denver, Colorado (and sometimes Lahaina, Maui HI or Frisco, Colorado).
I went to school in Colorado: University of Colorado (B.S. and M.A. English), worked in the corporate/computer world for many years.
I am a wife, mother, former corporate worker, and writer/reader. Proud mother of two great daughters & NanaGram to 4 “Grands.” Oh, and I’m an unapologetic movie and television buff. I love food and sometimes cooking. Did I say I love Colorado?
I will write about writing, books, movies, animals, travel, the environment, cooking, some opinion & whatever else is a “mystery to me.” I read about politics, but try to stay away from political opinion/argument.
Some things in life will most likely always be a mystery to me. I’m trying to figure most things out, and now that we have the Internet, it’s much easier to look things up, but now it’s a mystery to me which answers are right and which are wrong.
I have two published non-fiction books for YA, one YA novel that I’m trying to find a home for, a contract with Level Best Publishing for 3 novels about a sleuth who travels (due in 2026), and a published novel, Murder at Heartbreak Ranch (Shalako Press). I have maybe six other novels that will never see the light of day: practice novels that are safely stashed on my computer (the virtual “desk drawer.”
