This article relates to Live Bait
P.J. Tracy is the pseudonym of P.J. Lambrecht and Traci Lambrecht, a mother-daughter writing team.
P. J. Lambrecht describes herself as 'a college dropout with one of the largest collections of sweatpants in the world.' She had her first short story published in The Saturday Evening Post when Traci was eight and has been 'a moderately successfully freelance writer ever since'.
Traci Lambrecht graduated with a Russian Studies major from St. Olaf College in
Northfield, Minnesota, where she also
studied voice. Her aspirations of becoming a
spy were dashed when the Cold War ended, so
she instead attempted briefly and
unsuccessfully to import Eastern European
folk art. She began writing to finance her
annoying habits of travel and singing in
rock bands, and much to her mother's relief,
finally realized that the written word was
her true calling.
