Carolyn Ridder Aspenson A native of Indiana, Carolyn spent a good portion of her youth and adult life in the northwest Chicago suburbs, where she dabbled in the health and fitness industry until finally landing a full time career in insurance. Not liking the cold, gray winers of Chicagoland, Carolyn moved to a bright and sunny suburb outside of Atlanta, Georgia. She started her professional journalism career in Cumming, Georgia, where she continues to work as a freelance writer for various media outlets including print and Internet publications. A life long fitness enthusiast, Carolyn writes a monthly column for Northside Woman, an Appen News monthly magazine. Carolyn enjoys reading, but considers herself a genre snob, reading mostly mysteries and some chick lit. She loves to read Harlan Coben, Robert Crais and the late Robert Parker, whom she feels was the 'most incredible writer ever'. Married since 1998 to her 'hottie hubby', she is the mother of three children and two very old, very high maintenance dogs. Carolyn doesn't see ghosts, but swears she would be okay with it as long it was during the day. Keep in touch with Carolyn by visiting her website at www.carolynridderaspenson.com Read More Read Less
