Author Biography

Most writers start their bio with an explanation of who they are and why they write. I’ll make this simple. My name is Sherri Fulmer Moorer. I write because I’ve always loved to do it, and ebooks gave me an opportunity to share those stories with readers that I just couldn’t pass up. Plain and simple, I’m an opportunist. When the ebook revolution hit, I dove in because I wanted to be involved on the front end of this new wave. Who doesn’t want to be part of a revolution?

I write in a variety of genres because I can’t be pigeon holed into one area, and I’m many other things in addition to being an author. I work full time in professional licensing, which is great for keeping me in touch with people and reality and, in turn, inspires me to write more. I’m married and live in the woods with two parrots that keep our hearts, home, and lives filled with joy and silliness that most people find strange. I’m a book reviewer, social media rambler, and borderline introvert/extrovert whose kindred spirit, according to online quizzes, is somewhere between a Sith Inquisitor from Star Wars and Scooter from The Muppets.

Reviewed by Rosie Malezer for Readers' Favorite

Blurry is written by Sherri Fulmer Moorer. A victim of domestic violence, Kirsten Chalmers awaits her ride outside the university. When her jealous and abusive ex-boyfriend, Danny Elkman, shows up instead, they argue before Danny attacks her. Kirsten narrowly manages to escape Danny’s clutches and speeds away in her car, before realizing that her brakes have been tampered with near a sharp bend. Unable to stop, she drives off a cliff. As police treat Kirsten’s death as suspicious, her friends believe it was merely a coincidence that Kirsten had argued with Danny that night. Cell phone records show that Kirsten had sent a voice mail to her former best friend, Rachel Shull, just three minutes before Kirsten’s death, but the message had been deleted before Rachel could play it. Rachel confronts new love interest, Layne, who had recently put his contact details into the phone. Layne responds to the accusation with an engagement ring. While Josh secretly betrays his best friends by helping Danny beat the arrest, the rest of Kirsten’s friends remain clueless when police write the murder off as an accidental death, but with more and more of the group acting guiltier every minute, it is not long before they realize that Kirsten may not be the only one on the killer’s list.

This is a murder mystery like none I have ever seen. Sherri Fulmer Moorer manages to keep a secure lid on the culprit until the very end, while easily keeping the story moving at a steady pace. While I am not a fan of domestic violence, this book managed to keep me intrigued, as each time I thought I had figured out who had killed Kirsten, a new clue pushed me in a whole new direction. Blurry is an extraordinary novel which held my interest the whole way through due to its realistic characters and dialogue. I recommend this book to those over 15 years of age who like to keep their grey matter in shape with a good old dose of ‘Whodunit!’ Angela Lansbury has got nothing on Sherri Fulmer Moorer, and I look forward to seeking out Sherri’s other titles.
