Kory M. Shrum has published over thirty books including the bestselling Shadows in the Water and Dying for a Living series.

She also hosts two podcasts: “Who Killed My Mother?” the true story of her mother’s tragic death. And A Well Cared For Human - a mental health and self-care podcast.

You can listen to these shows for free on YouTube or your favorite podcast app. She also publishes poetry under the name K.B. Marie.

When not writing, eating, reading, podcasting, or indulging in her true calling as a stay-at-home dog mom, she can usually be found under thick blankets with snacks. The kettle is almost always on.

She lives in Michigan with her equally bookish wife, Kim, and their rescue pug, Charley.
