BIOGRAPHY

April Star took an unusual route to a writing career. Traveling the roads of America for 16 years with her husband, Jerry, April Star (known to her family and friends as JoMarie Grinkiewicz), began to write on the road as a means of expressing all she was experiencing.  Jerry’s work in the construction trade brought the couple to every “whereinthehellis” place on the map. April filled her days with journals of people, places, and oh…the countless “things” that happen on the road and in campgrounds. Many asked her over and over why she didn’t write a book. She did. A non-fiction account of all the journals titled, LIFE THROUGH A REAR VIEW MIRROR. In 1992, shortly after hurricane Andrew devastated the Homestead, Florida area, April and her husband rolled their 32 ft. Avion into a camping resort (which, at the time, appeared to be more of a MASH unit).

In an attempt to keep her sanity, April took a job in the office where she discovered INSANITY bred! She soon became assistant manager and marketing director and in 1996 her husband 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.

TROPICAL WARNINGS, the first in the Wanderlust series, is due to be released in December of 2006 by Five Star Books.
