Cami Ann Hofstadter is a published author and educator living in Miami, Florida. Under different names for different genres, she has works appearing in venues from a law review to Golf Digest to regional and foreign papers. She had a long-standing monthly column in Miami Today, and is particularly fond of human interest stories that challenge the thought-processes of her readers. Her long-ago love for a depressive, obsessive-compulsive man was the spring-board for her Tales2Inspire story, A Leap of Words. The 2nd edition of her recently published book on foreign consuls, is one of thirty-five special features by Kirkus Reviews. Currently, Cami is hard at work on fulfilling a request for a book of anecdotes about the rescue and resistance in her native Scandinavia during the period of the Holocaust.

Cami has the distinction of being a three time Tales2Inspire™ winner. Two different bookmarks, posted below, were designed to compliment the first two of her winning Tales2Inspire stories.
A Leap of Words (Tales2Inspire ~ The Ruby Collection): When your beloved is dying you want to do everything in your power to maintain the same routines that have comforted him throughout his years as an obsessive-compulsive. But when you and he come from two different religious traditions – one secularly Jewish and the other Protestant – a new ritual involving bedtime prayers creates a moral dilemma. This is a story about how it’s possible for someone who never liked change to find solace in the soothing rhythm of words he can’t understand. Read more.
Maintenance for My Soul – The Man from Nowhere (Tales2Inspire ~ The Emerald Collection): Just after hearing a devastating prognosis about her infant son, Cami meets a mysterious man who brings her a message of comfort and hope. Whether you believe in angels in human form or simply the theory of synchronocity, this story is a wonderfully inspiring read. Cami advises us to leave ourselves open to the mysteries of life.

In her story, Leftover Feminism – My Lunch With Betty Friedan, (Tales2Inspire ~ The Crystal Collection), Cami recounts details about the outcome of her face-to-face interview with the iconic feminist, Betty Friedan. Although this story tickles the funny bone with humor, it also has a serious side to it as Cami observes the inconsistency between this woman’s actions and beliefs.
