A. J. (Anne J.) Fotheringham

Hi, welcome to my website. I am a Canadian author based in Montreal, Quebec, and my passion is writing. I began scribbling stories and poetry at the age of nine and I am still going strong. I’ve had a life-long love of words. I used this skill to build a career in journalism, communications, translation and publishing. My books are available on amazon in both ebook and paperback formats.

 I am the author of three mystery series:

  • The Lamb’s Bay Mysteries, a nine-book cozy mystery series based in the fictional town of Lamb’s Bay, a coastal community whose charming atmosphere hides a series of secrets.
  • The Bailey Summers Mysteries, a three-book mystery series, in which a Montreal journalist uses her skills to solve mysteries while on assignment. 
  • The Wine Bar Mysteries, my newest series, in which a young woman who is part-owner of an inn in Mont Dubois, set in the Laurentian Mountains north of Montreal, gets involved helping a local police detective with solving crimes connected to the hotel and its guests.

I have also written A Journey to the Five Senses, a do-it-yourself-at-home writers’ retreat book which is available on amazon. And for those looking for a seasonal treat there is Special Delivery, Christmas Tales and Memories.

I am a graduate of McGill University (BA) and Seton Hill University’s Writing Popular Fiction program (MA). I enjoy reading, writing and holding creative writing workshops.
