Kaelin Wennerberg
I'm Kaelin Wennerberg, I was born and raised in a small town in Montana, US. Since a very young age, I have dreamed of being an author. I started my debut novel "The Jameson Cabin" when I was 22 and having a full-time job it took me four years to write and have my novel edited. What you're reading is the work of my dark thoughts and growing up in small town with nothing to do but drive aimlessly around.

I'm interested in some weird stuff. That's probably also one of the reasons I write horror.
I'm deep, dark and seriously twisted. -
