ⓘ About Suzette D. Harrison

Suzette D. Harrison is an award-winning humor and comedy, romance, and historical fiction author from the West coast. She jokingly calls her grandmother and mother her first librarians as she used to often ask them to define words for her when she was a child. As she grew older, her mother often sent her to the dictionary as she intentionally taught her to be comfortable and seek knowledge on her own. Her grandmother used to spend a lot of time reading, even though she also had the duties and obligations of being a mother, grandmother, friend, and church mother. One of her fondest memories during this time was of her granny in her favorite chair with a book, while her cousins ran and ripped outside.
