/24-7PressRelease/ - LAKELAND, FL, August 26, 2006 - Tropical Warnings, a hardcover November release (Five Star) is already gaining popularity among mystery fans, RV enthusiasts, and the RV industry.
Mystery author April Star took an unusual route to a writing career. Traveling the roads of America for 16 years with her husband, Jerry, she began to write on the road as a means of expressing all her adventures and experiences. Jerry's work in the construction trade brought them to every "where-in-the-hell-is" place on the map. April filled her days writing journals of people, places, and oh...the countless "things" that happen on the road and in campgrounds. Many campers through the years would ask her over and over why she didn't write a book. She did. A nonfiction account of all the journals titled, LIFE THROUGH A REAR VIEW MIRROR. It was distributed to family and friends only. Shortly after writing that very large volume, April discovered her real niche was in the mystery genre.
In 1992, shortly after hurricane Andrew devastated the Homestead, Florida area, April and her husband rolled their thirty-two foot Avion into a camping resort (which, at the time, appeared to be more of a MASH unit).
In an attempt to keep her sanity, she took a job in the office where she soon discovered INSANITY bred! A year later April became assistant manager and marketing director and in 1996 Jerry joined her in the office as they agreed upon the offer of campground managers. There they stayed and there is where the REAL stories and characters emerged for what is now a reality—the Wanderlust Mystery Series. Taken from both views of the full-time rv'er—the traveler across America and Canada as well as the villains—otherwise known as "THE Managers."
Currently April lives in Sebring, Florida and again working and managing a residential mobile home park with an RV section. You can take the girl out of the campground but you can't take the camping and adventure out of the girl.
April is an active member of Mystery Writers of America, Romance Writers of America, Sisters In Crime, The International Thriller Writers and The Authors Guild. Tropical Warnings is where the journey begins.
