  • Author Taylor Dawn
    Taylor Dawn began writing as an item to check off her bucket list. She resides in the southernmost part of Illinois, right on the mighty Mississippi river. She enjoys the quiet country life with her husband, son and the many farm animals that make up the rest of the family. Deciding that farm life was just a little too mundane, Taylor began writing romance and fantasy to liven things up, so far so good. Before starting her writing career, Taylor entered the field of cosmetology. When she isn't writing, she can usually be found sitting around a table making people laugh. She has always wanted to be a standup comic. She loves pulling practical jokes, dresses up in a costume every Halloween and believes that dancing is the key to a happy life (even if you aren't a good dancer). She believes that life shouldn't be taken too seriously, we will never get out alive anyway. More than anything, she is a kid at heart, she doesn't believe in bedtimes, eating everything on her plate, or having ice cream only for dessert. Her favorite quote is by Dr. Seuss..."Why fit in, when you were born to stand out."

  • Author Vicki Goodwin
    I was born and raised in Birmingham, Alabama. After raising my children I moved to Phoenix, Arizona where I spread my wings writing and learning the ins and out of the computer industry.
     
    I participated in my first NaNoWriMo in 2009, where I wrote the first draft of my book The Path of the Child. After finding an editor I published and began the healing process from a long illness. 
     
    While I was recovering I was unable to read books which I had aways enjoyed and I was unable to write.  After five long years, I finally picked up a book my sister gave me and read it in one sitting. Which happened to be on the airplane flying home.
     
    Once I read that one book, I was hooked once again. I began to devour books and after about six months I wrote my first pitiful review. I was once again enjoying writing so I began to focus on writing the reviews and sharing them on a blog that had sat unused for five years.  
     
    Now I enjoy blogging, reading, and writing reviews daily. I am also working on my third book while my second is being edited. Books are my passion along with my family and my Australian Shepherd, Beau.

  • Robert J Leuthold
    Robert was born November 3, 1977, and has been a hell raiser (sans the chains and leather…at least for now) ever since
    After being dragged into “the writing thing” practically kicking and screaming by Hydra, he became a regular contributor to Infernal Ink Magazine, with sporadic appearances elsewhere.  He currently resides in Thibodaux, Louisiana, and can be found on Facebook
    When he’s not writing, or planning world domination, he hosts Metal Invaders  on Radio Free Satan, which is really a showcase for his passion for metal music.  He’s also a Church Of Satan Member.

  • Author Gary Starta
    Gary Starta is a former journalist who studied English and Journalism at the University of Massachusetts in Amherst.
    His love for science fiction compelled him to write his first novel What Are You Made Of? published in 2006. Inspired by Isaac Asimov, the science fiction novel focuses on intelligent artificial life and whether sentient androids should possess the same rights as humans. The androids in Starta's novel are created as hybrids - part machine, part human - further blurring the line between human and machine. Starta foresees a near future where humans will be forced to decide if intelligent machinery is indeed a life form. Possibly, in this near future, some humans will possess computer enhancements to overcome disabilities becoming hybrids themselves. The line between biological life form and mechanical life form continues to be examined in 2010's Gods of the Machines.
    9 Incarnate, along with its preceding Caitlin Diggs (series) novels, Demon Inhibitions, Extreme Liquidation and Blood Web are reminiscent of the The X-files television/movie series. Contemporary authors Laurell K. Hamilton, Rachel Caine, Jim Butcher and Kelly Armstrong also fuel his aspiration to create paranormal suspense. Watch for Diggs and Shay books soon.
