Joanne Dobson--Writer, Teacher, Speaker

Hi, most of you will know me as the author of the Professor Karen Pelletier mystery series set at Enfield College, a small, elite campus in New England, where the curriculum seems to offer a major in murder.

On this site you'll find information about the Karen Pelletier mystery series, but you will also learn about my scholarly work on American women's literature and about the talks and classes I offer at libraries, colleges, writer's centers, and book groups. It is my purpose to bring the creative energy of the fiction writer and the experienced university teacher to the public forum.

See the Programs page of this site for my workshops, classes, and talks. If the e-mail link does not connect, contact me at jadobson@aol.com.

Learning is a life-long pleasure!

Joanne Dobson
