Welcome to the wacky world and incredible fantasies of Jo Webnar. I'm an author and freelance writer living a dream aboard a 36' trawler with my adorable husband, John, and two rambunctious Portuguese Water Dogs.
I met John in Waukegan Harbor where we both sailed. He is a cross between a Tasmanian Devil and a handsome pirate. Once I convinced him to marry me, our life became a continuous adventure.
Eight years ago, we decided to leave our stressful careers for a simpler life. Although our 4 adult children wanted to go with us, we managed to sneak away during the night. We gave away everything we owned and moved aboard the Jolly Mon.
The boat shrinks every year, but we still enjoy the cruising life. It has been a rich opportunity for meeting characters and acquiring settings for my novels.
Our permanent marina is in the Florida Keys. Once you visit "My Backyard" you will understand why.
The tab Excerpts gives you a taste of the following books.
Saving Tampa , a romantic suspense is about an FBI Agent and a psychic forced to work together to prevent a terrorist attack on Tampa Bay. Available wherever books are sold.
Hidden Death is my current project about a serial killer in the Florida Keys and the unique deputy that solves the case. I have to admit that this is my favorite. I think you will enjoy learning about the keys through MJ and her quirky personality.
My first book, Twilight is a modern love story about a widow and an irresistible stranger that teaches her to sail on Lake Michigan. To view my Trailer click on the link below
