Kathleen Peacock
I spent my teen years crushing on authors and writing short stories about vampires. This is also how I have spent a good slice of my adult years—although the vampires have been replaced by werewolves, angry girls, and ghosts.
Five things you might want to know:
-- I am Canadian
-- I am unlikely to survive the first few hours of the zombie apocalypse
-- I grew up on a steady diet of Stephen King, Doctor Who, and science fiction movies from the 60s, 70s, and 80s.
-- I have a weakness for romantic comedies with abysmally low Rotten Tomatoes scores
-- I am occasionally a university student

Eliza Crewe

My Ratings:
5 stars = If I weren't taken, I'd marry this book and have its delightful little book babies.
4 stars = goin' steady (or whatever you crazy kids call it these days). So good I'd read it again.
3 stars = A great, one-time fling. I enjoyed it but it probably won't be a reread.
2 stars and below = The pretty thing didn't make it past the pick-up line. I don't rate these because I don't finish them.
Bio
Eliza Crewe always thought she’d be a lawyer, and even went so far as to complete law school. But as they say, you are what you eat, and considering the number of books Eliza has devoured since childhood, it was inevitable she’d end up in the literary world. She abandoned the lawyer-plan to instead become a librarian and now a writer.

As an author and paranormalist, I weave words into wider realities. I explore the missing half of self. The emotional and spiritual parts of our being that connect us to ourselves, to each other, and to the Divine, however we imagine that to be. That entails all manner of topics that are usually labeled paranormal only because our definition of normal is far too limited. Step into a far larger multiverse!
I am also a storyhealer and former business journalist who knew at age 12 that I wanted to write a novel. I spent decades researching arcane, paranormal subjects. This ignited a passion for alternative spirituality, leading me to become a Sunan storyhealer. M -
