About NikeLike so many other writers, I started writing at a very young age. I still have the Crayola, fully illustrated book I penned (penciled might be more accurate) as a little girl about my then off-the-chart love of horses. In high school I wrote the requisite poems full of angst.Today, you might call me a crime fictionista. My passion is crime fiction. I was a 2010 Inspy Awards judge, a 2011 Carol Awards judge, and write book reviews for The Christian Pulse on-line magazine. Mostly I review serious crime fiction novels or other types of edgy Christian titles. I'm the founding board member of the Grace Awards, a reader-driven inspirational fiction awards. I'm a member of American Christian Fiction Writiers (ACFW), where I serve as a small critique group leader. I'm also a member of Edgy Christian Fiction Lovers on Ning, where I've coordinated a group summer blog tour and have taught a workshop on proposal writing. I'm a wife, mother, animal lover, living in a coastal metro New York City, a short distance from the Atlantic Ocean. I'm crazy about the ocean. My blog is Nike Chillemi ~ Crime Fictionista... http://crimefictionandfaith.blogspot.com/ I can be found on Twitter. http://twitter.com/#!/NikeChillemi
