SHERRY GOTTLIEB is a writer whose newest book is PUP FICTION, a CD collection of stories about Sam Spayed, canine private investigator. Her most recent novel is the erotic dark mystery WORSE THAN DEATH, published by Forge Books (a subsidiary of St. Martin's Press). It is the companion book to her previous novel, LOVE BITE, but can be read separately. LOVE BITE (Warner 1994), a police procedural with fangs, was the basis for the absolutely terrible 1995 TV-movie "Deadly Love", starring Susan Dey (the movie bore scant relation to the book). She is also the author of HELL NO, WE WON'T GO! RESISTING THE DRAFT DURING THE VIETNAM WAR (Viking 1991), an oral history which was a nominee for the PEN West USA Literary Award for nonfiction.

 

Sherry writes professional résumés; Career Boost Résumés serves clients in person in Ventura and Santa Barbara Counties, California, and internationally, through this website.

As Lasting Memories, she provides a legacy service to seniors in Ventura and Santa Barbara Counties, creating their memoirs for them based on confidential interviews.

 

She is also a book doctor who specializes in fiction. Her clients have sold to Knopf, St. Martin's Press, Harper-Collins, Berkley-Putnam, Greenleaf Book Group Press and Jossey-Bass. She contributed the chapter entitled "The Book Doctor is In: The Seven Most Common First Novel Problems and How to Avoid Them" in THE PORTABLE WRITERS' CONFERENCE (Quill Driver 1997).

 

Sherry owned A Change of Hobbit Bookstore in Santa Monica, California; for nearly two decades it was the oldest and largest speculative-fiction bookstore in the world. She now lives near the coast in Ventura County, California, with the dog who inspired PUP FICTION.
