Hi, I'm Logan.  Well, here's how my novel begins: An elderly resident at an Assisted Living Facility gets the shock of her life one night when a ghastly-looking stranger opens her door and enters her room.  The intruder then approaches Lois as she's lying in bed, too crippled to move, and too scared to scream.

I don't want to disclose too much because I want the readers to be surprised by everything that happens.  So, I'll just leave it at that.

It's very long - 25 chapters and a 136,000 word count.  There's action/adventure, horror, suspense, mystery, drama, Science Fiction, fantasy, some comedy, a little romance... just about everything!  It's a really captivating novel.  My ultimate goal is to get it turned into a movie, and shown in theatres around the world.

 My name is Patricia.  I'm a published Indie author with 5-star (the highest) ratings.  I'm also a professional editor, and a newspaper columnist.  Since this site is mainly for aspiring authors, instead of accomplished authors, such as myself, I will just give a few pointers here and there when the time comes for it.  And, if you lean toward the Sci-Fi/Fantasy genre, I'm confident you'll enjoy my novels.  So, at the behest of the Books N' Bios staff, I'll identify myself and my books, and tell you where you can purchase them.  Looking forward to the next stage of this website's progression when those things can transpire!  Great idea - this 'Books N' Bios' thing.  Thanks for letting me be a part of it!

 I'm a horror writer who has no limits on where I go.  My ideas come from everyday situations and then I put them through my twisted filter to hopefully shock and disgust you.

I love writing about zombies and more "human" monsters and have many ideas for short stories, novellas, and scripts (I even have a bizarre graphic novel about Steven Seagal as a time traveling, butt-kicker fighting evil) floating around in my head.  I really need to get them out!

 I began writing poetry in 2003 as a means to release a whirlwind of emotions and immeasurable heartache and to shed light on the often misunderstood Battered Spouse Syndrome.  Since then, my love for writing has flourished and I take great pleasure in composing poetry, short stories and contemporary Christian fiction.  I am currently working on my first novel.

I'm Lisa L.  I was born and raised in Iowa City, IA.  My fascination with mysteries began at an early age.  I spent a lot of my days playing in the cornfield across the street from my house.  My older brothers and neighborhood kids would often tell urban legends to scare us younger kids as we ventured through the rows of cornstalks.  Although I knew they were just trying to freak me out, the stories of alien abductions, hook-hand killers and haunted farm houses both terrified and mystified me.  I wondered if there could be any shred of truth to the tales.  When I wasn't outside, I passed the time playing Clue and helping Scooby Doo and the gang solve mysteries.

I quickly transitioned out of fictitious childhood whodunits with the introduction of Unsolved Mysteries.  The TV series featured firsthand accounts of brushes with the bizarre.  Learning about these real-life experiences opened my eyes to a variety of unusual phenomena.  I was intrigued by all facets of the paranormal but found ghosts to be the most intriguing.

In 2006, a sudden illness landed me in the intensive care unit.  At the time, my condition baffled physicians at two different hospitals.  Therefore, the proper treatment was unknown.  My fight for life resulted in what I can only explain as a near-death experience.  Though my illness was horrible, it was the point that my life began to change for the better.  Synchronicity led me to my wonderful husband, our first home and a series of fascinating events.  These occurences have escalated my interest in the unexplained into a personal quest for purpose.
