Highlights
Susan writes fiction under the name Susan Bacon. Her debut novel, The History Teacher, was recognized with a 2020 Independent Book Publisher (IPPY) Award. The audiobook came out in March 2024. And her new novel is slated for release in June.
As a ghost writer, Susan has developed successful book proposals and worked with authors under contract to major publishers. Her ghostwriting credits include an international bestseller.
A former journalist, she began her career at Memphis magazine, has done reporting for Time and Fortune, and has contributed feature stories to the Washington Post.
In the ‘90s, Susan wrote (or co-wrote) two books on the politics of parenting—including Are Our Kids All Right?, a Parents’ Choice selection—and appeared in major media, including NBC's Today Show.
She is a graduate of Barnard College with a degree in history and studied with Richard Bausch in his Moss Workshop in Fiction in 2009.
An award-winning copywriter, Susan still does special projects for a few select clients, but she now concentrates primarily on her own work. For updates on her fiction, please visit www.SusanBacon.com.
