About Stephanie
On a recent school visit I was asked what made me decide to be a writer. A great question! And one that I posed to a few of my favorite authors when I was twelve and working on a "career report" which required me to interview people in the field I aspired to. Back then - before computers and the internet were so readily available - I typed up a questionnaire and mailed it off in hopes it would actually reach the author and not end up in some office pile! I was so inspired and ecstatic when I received letters back from two of my favorites (Stephen King and Peter Straub). Now, decades later, I can post it all here on the web!
I wanted to become a writer because from as far back as I can remember, books inspired me, took me to fantastical or faraway places, and opened up the world to me in countless ways. I wanted to tell stories that could show people something new or offer a different perspective.
