ABOUT

My tablet is full of stories of ghosts, vampires, witches, werewolves and inexplicable evil by established writers and some less known.
Family stories include Great Uncle Arthur, who had been an inmate at the Ohio State Penitentiary, which famously burned to the ground in 1930, killing 320 prisoners. No one knows what caused the prison to burn, but there are stories of ghosts–prisoners still trapped where the prison once stood. The early part of the 20th century was a hard time to be poor, especially for children.

I remember my grandfather’s description of being a “charity kid” in an Ohio orphanage during the early 1900’s.
These family stories led to The Demon Rift. When I was fifteen, we moved from Kentucky to a small house in Glendale California, where I discovered a treasure–a cardboard box filled with science fiction paperbacks. Heinlein’s Have Spacesuit Will Travel was the only sci fi novel I had come across in the small Kentucky library I left behind. It was a blissful summer. There were stories by Asimov, Sturgeon, Bradbury and eerie novels like The Circus of Dr. Lao. I have loved science fiction since the house in Glendale.

Tales from Babylon Dreams, a novel taking place in virtual reality is my second novel.
Another short story, “The Seventh Folding of Willow Sprite,” is about an online romance gone wrong. Here’s a link to my interview on Ginger Nuts of Horror: Five Minutes with Marjorie Kaye I’ve also co-authored articles on the science of dreams published in the Huffington Post. Currently, I’m working on The Daevas, a novel chronicling the life of a woman who is stalked by demi-gods and Shemathra’s Realm, a sequel to Tales from Babylon Dreams.
