Jerine P. Watson has been writing for many years with a persistent prevalent interest in theatre since childhood when, at the age of 12, she wrote and directed a performance in honor of her parents' 25th anniversary. She is a native of Houston, attended Randolph-Macon Woman's College in Lynchburg, VA, and graduated from SMU in Dallas, TX, with a BA in English and a minor in Spanish in which she is fluent.  Her first novel was sold to Tower publishers which declared bankruptcy before her book was published and it was many months before she was able to reclaim the manuscript.  At present, she has five novels available on Amazon's Kindle under her pen name, Edith J. Pace, and was awarded Best Supporting Actress after her performance in Orpheus Descending at the Old Globe in San Diego, CA.  She has also enjoyed being cast in community theater performances in Denton, TX, Corpus Christi, TX, as well as the Old Globe.  She is a member of Mensa and is avidly interested in the exciting revelations in the field of Astronomy.  She currently resides once again in Corpus Christi and works as a freelance editor, ghostwriter, and proofreader and keeps an eye out for casting calls that might be appropriate for someone of her background and accent.
