Summer Heacock is an author of contemporary women's fiction, and prances through life like a Disney cartoon that says the "F" word a lot. She lives in a teeny Indiana town where she's a stay-at-home mom to two scampy tots, wife to an amazingly understanding husband, herder of a rescue critter menagerie, and collector of life-size celebrity cardboard cutouts. When not writing or hoarding jellybeans, she's a member of the Midwest Writers planning committee and a cohost of PubTalkTV.
