edit data

The author of more than a dozen books—my fiction spans the genres from thriller and psychological horror, to an occasional bloodbath, and the even rarer happy ending.

I was an editor and reviewer for over a decade, and have attended countless writing conventions, participated on dozens of panels, and spoken at the CIA Headquarters in Langley, VA regarding both my writing and the field in general. Born and raised in Wisconsin, she now lives in Destination, Pennsylvania.

Kelli answered Alexandra's question: I was looking, and noticed your book ' The Headless Boy' isn't available on Kindle anymore. Is there any reason why? It is hard to find now, and no way to read it. This edition is out of print. I have some paperback and hardcover copies left available (signed) through https://bit.ly/shbs20. A new edition will be coming out through Crystal Lake in 2023, which will include ebooks.
