Sam Tschida (pronounced cheetah) has four kids, two frogs, one dog, and one husband. She writes romcom/mysteries and runs Smut University, an online school of writing, while drinking too much coffee and trying not to crack up. With varying degrees of success, she manages to exercise and have hobbies. Past hobbies include painting, clarinet, and being a lawyer. For a brief period of time, Sam tried to save the environment with her legal skills. It didn’t work out for Sam, or the environment. Sam is the author of Siri, Who Am I?  which was a pretty hot book in 2021. Divorced & Deadly, which will hopefully be even hotter, is coming out in 2024.
