Bonny G. Smith is from Miami, Florida, where she lived until moving to the Washington, DC metropolitan area as a teenager. Ms. Smith is the author of nine novels and a book of short stories, across several literary genres. Living near the Smithsonian Institution and its many museums sparked a lifelong interest in history. After years of reading and enjoying history, biography and historical fiction, Ms. Smith decided to write her own novels about her favorite historical era, Tudor England. The Tudor Chronicles consists of four full-length novels in five volumes, beginning in 1502 and ending in 1603. The prequel to The Tudor Chronicles, The Wars of the Roses Saga, consists of two full-length novels, telling the tale of the last Plantagenets, and the founding of the Tudor Dynasty. To Thine Own Self begins in 1457 with the birth of Henry Tudor; For Thine Is the Kingdom begins in 1483 with the death of King Edward IV and the events leading up to Henry’s triumph at Bosworth, and ends with his death in 1509. In addition to Ms. Smith’s historical fiction novels, she has also written books of contemporary fiction. Living in the Washington DC area awakened an interest in criminology and justice. Ms. Smith’s international crime novels, the two books of The Interpol Series, trace the lives of two Interpol agents who pursue a different crime in each book. Other books by Ms. Smith include a coming-of-age novella set in steamy 1960s Miami, and a book of macabre short stories. Ms. Smith’s books are available on Amazon in Kindle eBook and paperback. Ms. Smith began writing in 2003 while employed as a Certified Project Manager for several major corporations. She is now a full-time writer since retiring from a career in global telecommunications.
