About/Contact Mindy

Mindy Carlson is the Silver Falchion Award-nominated author of Her Dying Day. She lives outside Washington, DC with her two kids, two cats, and one economist husband. There’s nothing she loves more than a night in with a pot of tea, a sweater to knit, and a murder mystery on the TV. (Yes, she is basically a British Granny.) She also loves to curling, baking, drag brunches, and procrastinating on big DIY projects.

After growing up on a farm in Iowa, she bypassed veterinary school to begin a winding journey that took her to UC Berkeley, Washington, DC, and Basel, Switzerland. Switzerland changed how she viewed parenting, travel, food, and the United States — all for the better! She combined the Swiss parenting philosophy with her Montessori experience, developing a new philosophy of how we better relate to children. Inspired by the change in her own relationship with her children, she decided to inspire others through a series of parenting articles. You can find these articles at such outlets as AFineParent.com, Big Life Journal, and The Washington Post.

Mindy Carlson, Silver Falchion Award-nominated author of Her Dying Day, grew up on a farm in northern Iowa. She got her degree in Animal Science and then instead of going to vet school she took a left turn and moved into a commune in Berkeley, CA. Naturally, she now writes comedic mysteries featuring messy women heroes in impossible situations. Mindy lives outside Washington, DC with her husband, two kids, and two cats. She loves coffee shops, curling, and champagne brunches. If you want to see what she’s baking, knitting, writing, reading, or thinking, you can pop by her website, www.MindyCarlson.com.
