Karen McCullough
Karen McCullough began dreaming of other worlds somewhere
around the sixth
grade when a friend lent her a stack of speculative fiction
books that
included Poul Andersons's THREE HEARTS AND THREE LIONS,
Heinlein's
METHUSALEH'S CHILDREN and STARSHIP TROOPERS, and Arthur C.
Clarke's
CHILDHOOD'S END. After working her way through all the SF
and fantasy books
she could find in the local library, she began writing her
own stories. At
the same time, she began to devour books in other genres as
well,
particularly mystery and romance. That love of multiple
genres continues to
be a theme in both her reading and writing.
In the years since that formative reading bout, Karen has
written
approximately two dozen novels and seen nine of them
published. She's had
four novels of romantic suspense published by Avalon Books,
two romantic
mystery/thriller books published by LTDBooks, and a fantasy
role-playing game
book set in Tolkien's Middle-earth published by Iron Crown
Enterprises.
Her most recent (November 2002) release was a romantic
fantasy from ImaJinn
Books. In its orginal electronic form, WITCH'S JOURNEY was
a finalist in both
the Eppie and Dream Realm Awards, and was voted favorite
SciFi/Fantasy
Romance of 2001 in the "Affaire de Coeur" Readers' Poll.
Karen has three more books coming out from ImaJinn.
WIZARD'S BRIDGE, in its
original electroniclly published form as THE RAINBOW
BRIDGE, was a finalist
in the PRISM Contest sponsored by the Futuristic, Fantasy &
Paranormal
chapter of Romance Writers of America, the Rising Star
Award contest, and it
won the first-ever Eppie Award for Fantasy. It's due to be
published in
early 2004. Two other books, as yet untitled, a pair of
sequels to WITCH'S
JOURNEY, are also planned.
Karen has placed numerous short stories in a variety of
small-press science
fiction, fantasy, mystery, and romance publications. She
has a day-job gig
as Senior Web Editor at Reed Business Information and does
some freelance Web
design. She invites you to visit her own home on the Web
