Allyson James dreamed of being a published
writer since the age of eight. She soon learned the trick of standing her
math book up on her desk so she could write stories behind it. She wrote love
stories before she knew what romances were, and started writing fantasy and
science fiction while in college.
At age thirty, she decided to stop
dreaming and do it for real. She published the first short story she ever
submitted in Marion Zimmer Bradley's Fantasy Magazine, which gave her
the false illusion that getting published was easy. After many tries and many
rejections, she now feels blessed to be a published author.
Allyson welcomes mail from readers. You can write to her c/o
