Wendy Shreve

Wendy Shreve grew up in the wilds of the Lower Hudson Valley, New York, climbing trees; connecting with nature. With New York City at her doorstep, she found a launching pad to new horizons. Whether teaching ESL in Singapore during the Persian Gulf War, taking a school group across ravines in the jungles of Belize, going solo in Bali, or drinking a toast to Picasso with a taxi driver in Provence, Wendy has never settled for the ordinary. Wendy brings to her novels a unique and memorable lifetime of adventure and “magic.”

She received her BA at Smith College and MA at University of Montana. Along with teaching ESL at schools and universities in Europe, Asia, and the United States, her professional experience has included working as a freelance consultant, publicist, and copy writer for organizations such as the Cape Playhouse in Dennis, MA, and Payomet Performing Arts Center in Truro.

Among her many interests are environmental activism, film, fishing, painting watercolors, photography, and walking Nauset Beach.

Her love of Cape Cod has inspired her to author the short story, Lamentations, published by Hamilton Stone, Fall 2011 for their Quarterly Review, and her novels, SHADOWWATER and DARK SEA, Shadowwater II.

Wendy’s newest blog called “Featuring Film” launches her career as a film reviewer/writer. See link for more  details.
