Roswitha Wilkinson's pen name is Spooky Rosi. A
native of Germany, Rosi married an American who worked at the air base close to her home. She was an avid horsewoman and,
in 1986, a horse stumbled and threw Rosi from the saddle, leaving her with a head injury similar to a stroke. She says
with good humor, "My passion for horses got the best of me."
For ten years she was in a wheelchair, and now she uses a walker. Her goal is to walk free again...in her words,
"Dead or alive!" She has been writing seriously for five years, mostly short stories and personal essays. She
is planning a novel - a western, since she loves horses, cowboys, outlaws and everything western. She still struggles
with the language because, as she says, "There is definitely a difference between 'British English' and 'Arkansas English.'"
