Janet Evanovich is a contemporary American mystery writer, best known for her Stephanie Plum series of detective novels. She is the author of 21 mystery books.
Janet Evanovich’s website provides a brief bio. She graduated high school from Black River High School in South River, New Jersey. She went on to attend Douglass College in New Jersey for 4 years where she studied art. On her website, Evanovich admits she wasn’t really in to the art at all and instead, tried to find another way to communicate with others.
By her own admission, Evanovich started writing strange stories, submitting them to various publishers over the years. She claims on her website that after she filled a large box with all of her rejection letters from publishers, she burned them and applied for a job at a temp agency.
Four months into her career as a temp, a publisher called and offered to publish a manuscript she’d submitted from her Second Chance at Love stories. She agreed and received a small payment. This event energized her writing and she spent some years writing romantic novels for the Bantam Loveswept line from that time.
Evanovich and her husband, Peter eventually moved to New Hampshire in a large home near the water where she began writing her Stephanie Plum novels. She admits she spent considerable time with people in law enforcement to help her formulate her incredibly successful line-up of mystery comedy stories with her silly protagonist, Ms. Stephanie Plum.
Evanovich has written two others series, the Diesel and Tucker series and Alex Barnaby series. She’s co-authored numerous romances and wrote several romances herself initially in her writing career. She’s penned children’s books and even a few nonfiction works.
From Romance Novels to Mysteries
Her first efforts were, rather blue, short stories and after she piled up a box of rejection slips, Janet Evanovich went to work as a secretary. Two months into that gig, she got a call from an editor who wanted to publish one of her romance novels. Janet quit on the spot, bowled over by the $2000 advance. (This was the 1970s.) She wrote ten more romances before deciding to focus on mysteries.
Evanovich has written three mystery series, the most popular of which features lingerie buyer turned detective, Stephanie Plum. Her most recent book, Motor Mouth, released in October of 2006, is the second in a series of mysteries featuring Alexandra Barnaby and NASCAR driver Sam Hooker.
Life as a Writer
Janet Evanovich lives in New Hampshire with her husband Pete, daughter Alex, and son Peter. All three work in the family business: handling the writer, Janet Evanovich. Pete is her manager; Peter does the books; and Alex is responsible for her fun and stylish website and newsletter.
Asked how she gets motivated to write, Ms. Evanovich says that she simply spends the money before she earns it.
Analysis of Janet Evanovich’s Work
Some type of mystery is afoot. Someone is missing, has been killed, or something’s been stolen. Evanovich’s main character, Stephanie is unattached and has a problematic love life. She isn’t sure what she wants and might even possibly be commitment-phobic. She’s unsure of herself at times. At others, she’s too sure of herself, even to a fault.
In essence, Stephanie is flawed in many ways, yet always manages to get herself out of a jam. Whether it’s money problems, relationship struggles, or family crises, Stephanie prevails in the end. And what it takes to reach that end is a heck of a story.
An important ancillary character in the Plum series, Lulu, brings more comedy and real color to the novels. Lulu, in a sense, is Stephanie’s sidekick or partner in crime. They end up in all kinds of trouble. Lulu reminds me that no matter where someone’s been, they can change, at least to a certain degree (except for their short and tight spandex skirts).
Stephanie Plum Series
The Stephanie Plum series by Janet Evanovich features a sassy, untrained bounty hunter navigating crime and chaos in Trenton, New Jersey. Combining mystery, humor, and romance, these books offer quick-paced entertainment. Stephanie’s quirky family, love interests Joe Morelli and Ranger, and oddball cases create an addictive, laugh-out-loud experience.
This is Janet Evanovich’s most popular and enduring series. The series is known for its humor, wit, and Stephanie’s mishaps as she tracks down fugitives while navigating her personal life.
