Gregory Ashe
I'm a long-time Midwesterner. I've lived in Chicago, Bloomington (IN), and Saint Louis, my current home. Aside from reading and writing (which take up a lot of my time), I'm an educator.
While I enjoy reading across many genres, my two main loves are mystery and speculative fiction. I used to keep a list of favorite books, but it changes so frequently that I've given up. I'm always looking for recommendations, though, so please drop me a line if you have something in mind!
My big goal right now is one day to be responsible enough to get a dog.

Ever since I was tiny (I'm not tall now but I was smaller once) I've been enraptured by romance and horror. I grew up watching Disney movies and my favourites have always been 'The little mermaid' and 'Beauty and the beast'. The way the relationships develop in these stories were what really sparked my love of romance. I've always been an avid reader whether it be a goosebumps book or 'blood and chocolate' when I was younger and James Herbert, Christine Feehan or Gena Showalter now I'm older. It was my enjoyment of reading that made me want to write my own stories and develop my own characters and situations.
