Georgia Cockerham lives on the southern Oregon coast with husband, Bruce Cockerham.  She is an Active member of

Mystery Writers of America,  and of the Watercolor Society of Oregon.  Georgia is mother to two sons

and has seven wonderful grandchildren.   She holds a BA degree in Business Management from

Saint Mary's College, Moraga, and is a retired financial advisor and insurance broker.


Bruce is Georgia's technical consultant for the law-enforcement references in her murder mysteries.

Bruce is a retired police captain with thirty years' experience in law enforcement.  He has

worked in patrol, traffic, detectives, SWAT, and administration and also worked as an academy

instructor.  He trained with the FBI as a counter sniper, and is a graduate of both the California

Command College and the FBI National Academy.  Bruce currently serves with the Curry

County Sheriff's Office as a civil-enforcement deputy.

I have always enjoyed a great murder mystery, and once I started writing about Patty O'Toole and Rick

Starker I couldn't let them go.  Hence, Murder On The Oregon Coast, Murder On The Wind, Murder Replete...for now, 

Murder Takes All, Murder at Macklyn Cove, and my sixth book in the series, Murder at Ferry Creek.


I have been honored, due to the success of my writing, to be one of the judges for the 2023 Killer Nashville Silver Falchion Award

competition.  This involved my reading a manuscript and electronically completing a judge's form.  I will be attending the 2024 

Killer Nashville's International Writer's Conference in Tennessee.


While signing books at the 2023 Oregon Cheese Festival, I was reminded of another honor bestowed upon me a few years ago

following publication of Murder Replete....for now.  My first three books were featured in the Who's Who/What's What section of

Southern Oregon magazine.


When not writing, I enjoy time spent with family and friends.  I believe in supporting one's community and do so as a volunteer for the

Curry County Sheriff's Office, and serving as a board director for Coos-Curry Electric Cooperative, the Federated Rural Electric Insurance Exchange, and my local Manley Art Center.


The Oregon coast is filled with scenery that awakens my creative soul, and it's the rhythmic ebb and flow of the sea that inspires me.

The people I've met and continue to meet throughout my journey provide enrichment to my creativity and to my life.
