EJ Towler
EJ Towler
EJ Towler lives in coastal Virginia and writes tales of extraordinary women and the men they
love (or sometimes simply tolerate). Her stories have unusual twists and turns, but none began on
a dark and stormy night. Her books feature dachshunds who along with the heroines find their
way to a happily ever after. EJ is a veteran of the US Army, a retired psychological professor,
and dachshund advocate. She and her service dog Huckleberry Hound are avid travelers for
research and fun. All EJ’s books and stories have a bit of truth from things that have happened in
her life. It is up to the reader to ferret out what is fact and fiction.
EJ is available for presentations to book clubs, reader/writer conferences, or anywhere readers
come together.
