Author bio: Hi, everyone. I grew up here in Utah and have lived here all of my life other then brief months away. I started writing at a very young age and knew that is what I wanted to do. It was my passion and my drive. I didn't actually sit down to focus on my writing until my early twenties. Long after I'd already started a family. I went through ugly times as I saw the death of my father at fourteen and then my mother again two short years ago. After my mother past I knew I needed to pick up my pace or die trying to get a book out there like she had. I suppose like mother like daughter saying works here. I have just recently finished my first novel and I am going over the proof copy before I bring it up live on several platforms for e-readers along with an order to print version. I have also been contacted by someone that would like to do the narrating for the audible version as well. I have been very fortunate to meet a lot of other writers that have shared their knowledge with me and have helped me throughout this long process. As I finish up the last few stages of the first book in my series (DeWinter Series) I have already begun the work on the next. Raising three kids, two of which are teenagers while writing is proving to be a challenge. However, it is a challenge I love. Especially when they get into the writing with me. My teenage son contributed a chapter in the first book by telling me about a dream he had and when he found it in the book it has definitely kept him excited. My husband has been an amazing support system and has dealt with many grueling hours of what we call couch sessions. We analyze parts of the book and he gives me a sounding board to make sure it all flows smoothly.

The Black Cat	by Drac Von Stoller Feb. 07, 2012	$0.99	988 words	Sample 20%
Author bio: Drac Von Stoller's imagination and fascination for the Horror genre began when he was a little boy watching his favorite actors such as Vincent Price, Peter Cushing, Christopher Lee and Bela Lugosi on his little black and white television alone in his dark room. Drac would watch these horror movies for hours and build model kits of his favorite characters like Dracula, the Wolfman, Frankenstein and even the Munster's car from his favorite television series. Then as time went on and nothing was left to the imagination in the new horror movies, Drac still loved watching the old movies he so loved as a little boy. Then as Drac became an adult he decided one day that he would write a short story in the horror genre and let some of his friends read it and see what they thought. Drac's first short story was titled "Death in the Wilderness," which would be considered flash fiction but this would be Drac's test to see if he was destined to be an author. Sure enough when people read "Death in the Wilderness" they loved it but couldn't understand why Drac didn't keep on with the story but Drac knew all along that if what they read was so good then Drac has succeeded. This gave Drac the confidence he needed to keep on writing more and more short stories. The rest is history Drac has now written 31 short stories in the course of a 2 year span. Drac doesn't want to write a story unless it moves him in a way that he would want to read his own work and say any horror or ghost fan would not be disappointed.

I have worked and lived across the world for over twenty eight years, and am now, tapping into the subterranean recesses inside my cranium to bring to the surface my experiences and observations, god, bad and ugly. I love writing; it stretches me to reflect, to delve deeper, and perhaps, hopefully to even darker places. TMK
