Carol Edge, originally from Birmingham, Alabama, made her way to Bloomington via Illinois, Germany, and Tennessee. Along the way, she earned a certificate in graphic arts at Nashville State Technical Institute and degrees in English and African American and African Diaspora Studies at Indiana University. The constants in her life are Ron, their son Tim, and a long line of cat companions.

For more than 14 years she worked in publications at the IU Alumni Association and another few years doing publications and PR for the IU Department of African American and African Diaspora Studies.

After retiring from the work world, Carol finally had time to focus on writing. Her first mystery novel — Blood Terminal — is on the local authors shelf at Morgenstern’s and at the public library. She is now editing her second mystery, which she expects to publish later this year.

On Feb 5, she’ll read a couple of pieces from a “flash memoir” she began during the pandemic and, if there’s time, a short bit from Blood Terminal.
