Linda Spear:  

Journalist, corporate communicator, ghostwriter--Didn't I always have a lot to say? I've done it all throughout the years, but I became a novelist at the end of 2009! This is the culmination of what Maizie Weill set out to imbue in me. She told me at age seventeen, to just do it, and it only took 50 years...better late...and you know the rest. I am an author and former journalist for The New York Times, where I reported on evolving health and human interest. Before my debut as a novelist with the critically acclaimed, “I KnowYou by Heart,” I served as manager of corporate communications at Novartis. Currently I ghostwrite books with doctors who want to inform the public about developing advances in their specific fields of medicine. My newest novel of suspense and murder, “The Iceman Checks Out,” received praiseworthy reviews for several newspapers and magazines. Recently, I completed a book with a doctor who specializes in pain management entitled, “When It Hurts: The Secrets and Mysteries of Pain Management Revealed.”It will be published in 2021. When I am not writing, I facilitate Writer’s Workshops for those who are interested in pursuing a journalistic career or just enjoy writing short stories, a memoir or even a novel. I also assist them with copy editing and finding agents or publishers for their articles and books.
