Her novels are rich tapestries woven with these elements, exploring the complex choices women make as they navigate the labyrinth of careers, love affairs, family, travel, and personal passions. Within her gripping narratives, readers are transported into worlds of suspense, crime, hidden truths, and profound love.

Beyond her own novels, McClendon collaborated with four fellow crime novelists on the foodie thriller "Beat Slay Love," a darkly comedic homage that adds an audacious twist to "Eat Pray Love." This uproarious adventure is available on Amazon as an ebook, paperback, and audiobook. In 2020, McClendon embarked on an inspirational project, conceiving and editing the anthology "STOP THE WORLD: Snapshots from a Pandemic." This remarkable compilation captures the tumultuous events of an unforgettable year, featuring contributions from forty authors representing ten countries. Profits from the anthology are dedicated to charitable causes, making it a meaningful addition to any reading list. Lise McClendon's writing journey has flourished from her picturesque Montana home, where she has penned numerous novels, short stories, and thought-provoking articles. Her creative journey has also extended into the realm of filmmaking, with her short film, "The Hoodoo Artist," earning recognition at the Telluride Indiefest in 1997. McClendon's dedication to the craft extends beyond her writing as she has served on the national boards of directors for both the Mystery Writers of America and the International Association of Crime Writers/North America. She continues to share her expertise as a faculty member at the esteemed Jackson Hole Writers Conference each summer. In her own words, McClendon emphasizes the indomitable spirit of storytelling that has fueled her passion for over three decades: "After thirty years, writing fiction has become as necessary as breathing. Finding the essential story in the novel, chipping away the rock until the solid core is revealed, is an adventure and a joy."
