Goff began her career writing non-fiction, penning columns for several local newspapers in Summit County, Colorado, as well as articles for regional and national publication. Later, she edited rock and ice-climbing guides for Chockstone Press, worked in graphic production for “Living the Good News,” a division of The Morehouse Publishing Group, and taught writing workshops at the Colorado Free University and the University of Colorado-Colorado Springs. A long-standing board member of several local and national writing organizations, Christine was recently named Rocky Mountain Fiction Writer’s 2002 Writer of the Year.
A life-long resident of Colorado, Christine is able to identify over 200 Colorado bird species. Now an avid field-birding enthusiast, Christine still considers herself a "backyard birdwatcher." She lives in Colorado with her husband, three children, three dogs, and assorted wildlife—her inspiration for murder.
