Shadow Leitner, author of Paranormal, Sci-Fi/Fantasy and Gothic Romance novels for Young and New Adults, thoroughly enjoys torturing her imaginary characters with love and other peculiar things. She also creates hauntingly beautiful art with her iPhone, consumes absurd amounts of coffee, and is enchanted by all things vintage and old world. Shadow haunts from Frederick, Maryland, with her husband, their two spawn, a menagerie of mostly domesticated animals.
