About me: Hello friends and fans! I'm Allison Brennan, the New York Times bestselling author of a dozen romantic thrillers.
I'm taking a temporary detour into the realm of the supernatural with my new Seven Deadly Sins series which launches in February 2010 with ORIGINAL SIN (on sale 1.26.10) followed by CARNAL SIN in July.
But there are more romantic thrillers in the works: in October 2010 the first book in my new Lucy Kincaid series will be out.
I belong to several professional writers organizations . . . all the usual suspects. Romance Writers of America, International Thriller Writers, Mystery Writers of America AND my newest "acquisition" (ha!) Horror Writers Association. I also am a regular contributor at Murder She Writes, Murderati, and Romancing the Blog.
For fun, I like traveling to writer’s conferences, playing video games with the kids (and by myself!), reading (of course!), watching old movies (and new), and catching up on my favorite television shows through AppleTV. I don't think I'd survive without my iPod, because I seem to write faster to music. My kids are into everything from drama to sports, so I do a lot of driving and cheering and watching. All the while thinking of new ways to torture my characters . . .
I hope you find time to read Peek-A-Boo and please comment me at the SNM Reader Guestbook? Thank You! http://www.snmhorrormag.com/snmaugustissue2.htm Your Friend, Brian Johnpeer

“I found killerbyte to be an excellent read. The tension created by the suspense is so heavy as to be almost tangible, the action is both exciting and gruesome, and the mystery is extremely well-executed.” – Excerpt from Bookwenches review.
Killerbyte available now at Mobipocket, Amazon, and now as an iPhone application.
