I had some extra special help from some people during the writing of
Twisted Dreams
. As I have never been to an American college, I drew on the experiences of some of my wonderful online friends who were kind enough to answer my numerous questions! Those friends were Trina JamesKnerr, Ashley Dora, and Dyamone Gabrielle Rockmore. Thank you so much, ladies. Your insight and help was invaluable.
As always, I also want to thank my editor Lori Whitwam, who worked with her usual lightning fast accuracy, and spotted so many of my errors before I hung them out in public for all to see.
I would also like to thank Karri, who designed my cover art. It wasn’t an intentional design, as I spotted this artwork when it won a competition and immediately knew I wanted it for Elizabeth’s book. I can’t wait to see what you come up with for book two!
Thank you, as well, to my little team of fantastic proofreaders, Glynis Elliott, AJ Wilcox, and Kim Hayes. I know Lori’s excellent work doesn’t often give you much to do, but your sharp eyes are need and appreciated nonetheless.
And finally, thank you to all my readers. Without you, all of these books would never get written.
Marissa
Marissa Farrar is a multi-published fantasy and horror author. She was born in Devon, England, has travelled all over the world, and has lived in both Australia and Spain. She now resides in the countryside with her husband, three young children, a crazy Spanish dog, and two rescue cats. Despite returning to England, she daydreams of one day being able to split her time between her home country and the balmy, white sandy beaches of Spain.
Even though she’s been writing stories since she was small and held dreams of being a writer, her initial life plan went a different way.
In her youth, inspired by James Herriot, she decided to become a vet, and would regularly bring home new pets to her weary parents. Upon discovering her exams were never going to get her into a veterinary degree, she ended up studying Zoology. Once she completed her degree and realised she’d spent the majority trying to find time to write, she decided to follow her dream of being an author. Seven years later, she was published and two years after that she was able to say goodbye to the day job.
However, she’s continued to collect animals!
Marissa is the author of twelve novels, including the dark vampire ‘Serenity’ series. Her short stories have been accepted for a number of anthologies including,
Their Dark Masters,
Red Skies Press,
Masters of Horror: Damned If You Don’t,
Triskaideka Books; and
2013: The Aftermath,
Pill Hill Press.
