Mystery writing lets Peg Cochran indulge her curiosity under the guise of "work" (aka research). She put pen to paper at age seven when she wrote plays and forced her cousins to perform them at Christmas dinner. She switched to mysteries when she discovered the perfect hiding place for a body down the street from her house.

When she's not writing, she spends her time reading, cooking, spoiling her grandchildren and checking her books' stats on Amazon.

A former Jersey girl, Peg now resides in Michigan with her husband She is the author of the Open Book Series (writing as Margaret Loudon), Murder, She Reported series, the Cranberry Cove series, the Farmer's Daughter series, the Gourmet De-Lite series, the Lucille series and the Sweet Nothings Lingerie series (written as Meg London).
