About this author

Lisa was born in Paris, Texas, the youngest of three children. Her family moved every few years, so she grew up all over the United States. All that time in cars and airplanes gave her ample opportunity to start writing early.

When she was eighteen she was accepted to the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, and she graduated in May, 2010. In July 2010, however, she was honorably discharged from the Army due to medical reasons, so she is now beginning her career as an author. She currently lives in Kentucky where she works at the local library and works on building her writing career.

“One should always seek out opportunity, not security. The desire for opportunity comes from courage, whereas the desire for security comes from fear.”
Lisa Taylor

“I couldn't live a week without a private library - indeed, I'd part with all my furniture and squat and sleep on the floor before I'd let go of the 1500 or so books I possess.”
H.P. Lovecraft

“The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents... some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the light into the peace and safety of a new Dark Age.”
H.P. Lovecraft, The Call Of Cthulhu

“If I am mad, it is mercy! May the gods pity the man who in his callousness can remain sane to the hideous end!”
H.P. Lovecraft, The Temple

“Religion is still useful among the herd - that it helps their orderly conduct as nothing else could. The crude human animal is in-eradicably superstitious, and there is every biological reason why they should be.
Take away his Christian god and saints, and he will worship something else...”
H.P. Lovecraft

“At night, when the objective world has slunk back into its cavern and left dreamers to their own, there come inspirations and capabilities impossible at any less magical and quiet hour. No one knows whether or not he is a writer unless he has tried writing at night.”
H.P. Lovecraft
