Beverly J. Scott

Wife, mother, grandmother, God’s child, avid reader, author, native Iowan, joyous person, office manager and, part owner of a fleet of Edsels, are words that describe who I am and give voice to experiences that are reflected in my writing style. I was born in Mason City, Iowa, and at age ten, we moved to a farm outside of Corydon. My junior year of High school we moved to Des Moines where I graduated first from East High School and then Grandview College. I married Dwayne Scott (Scotty) on Valentines Day 1958 and together we created five great children. Nine years ago we lost our oldest daughter due to complications of diabetes. We are privileged to claim 8 grandchildren ranging in age 2 to 22, and they and our children all live within a 30-minute drive. In 1969 Rheumatoid Arthritis invaded my life, left me with steel hips, plastic knees, stubby feet, curled fingers and daily pain. RA taught me to value each new day for the adventure or challenge that it presents. Our business, Colonial Builders, was established in 1975, and I have managed the office in our home since its inception. Before the onset of RA, I even helped with a few construction projects. Our first Edsel was purchased in 1976 and it became a hobby enjoyed by the entire family. Our collection of Edsels, big and little, has grown large enough that we have dreams of creating an Edsel museum. Scotty and I served as Treasurers of the International Edsel Club from 1986 to 2004. We look forward to vacationing each July with other Edsel enthusiasts at an IEC Rally. My first novel “Righteous Revenge” was published in September of 2001. “Ruth Fever” became available in May of 2003, and “Jena’s Choice” was published in July, 2004. Book four is in progress, tentatively titled "White Nigger", and number five in the thinking stage. Writing frees my adventurous spirit, satisfies my imagination, and blocks my pain. I am a member of Mystery Writers of America, and you can read my profile in the 2004 and 2005 edition of Marquis’ Who’s Who in America.  Information on my novels can be found using the BookAdz.com links below or at: http://www.authorsden.com/beverlyjscott I am Beverly J Scott – word wizard and wise woman. 6990 N W 6th Drive Ankeny, Iowa 50021 515-289-2601 515-289-1200 bevscott1@msn.com
