About this author

Wynne Channing is an award-winning national newspaper reporter and young adult novelist.

She started writing horror/fantasy tales as a girl. She still has the first novel that she wrote when she was 10. It’s (unintentionally) hilarious.

Wynne loves telling stories and as a journalist, she has interviewed everyone from Daniel Radcliffe and Hugh Jackman to the president of the Maldives and Duchess Sarah Ferguson. The closest she has come to interviewing a vampire is sitting down with True Blood‘s Alexander Skarsgard (he didn’t bite).

She briefly considered calling her debut novel “Well” so then everyone would say: “Well written by Wynne Channing.”


yearofthesnakeAccording to fortune tellers, this year of the snake will bring change and tumult. As part of the Year of the Snake Blog Hop organized by the marvellous Wendy S. Russo, participants must find a passage in their work that embodies the spirit of the snake:a symbol of wisdom and cunning, but also delusion and deception.


In What Kills Me, the society of vampires is all about deceit. Zee trusts all...

" So sad this book is over :(
It was so goood!!! "

Under a smoky streetlamp I stood face to face with my beloved and pricked my fingers against the diamond studs of her immaculate shirt front. Being tall, she slipped her hands naturally about my hips and pulled me close. And being bold, I put my mouth on hers and this time went inside and told her all the things I’d been longing to. Dark and sweet, the elixir of love is in her mouth. The more I drink, the more I remember all the things we’ve never done. I was a ghost until I touched you. Never swallowed mortal food until I tasted you, never understood the spoken word until I found your tongue. I’ve been a sleep-walker, sad somnambula, hands outstretched to strike the solid thing that could awaken me to life at last. I have only ever stood here under this lamp, against your body, I’ve missed you all my life.Ann-Marie MacDonald

“He huffed. I twisted to the left, leaned over him, and reached around his body.

“What are you doing?” he asked, alarmed.

“I’m hugging you goodbye,” I said.

“What do you think I’m doing? I’m putting your seatbelt
on.”

I pulled the belt across his chest and wrestled it into the buckle. Then I sat back and fastened
mine.

“Seat belts save lives,” I said, annoyed.”
