Elaine Pinter was loaned a book while her son was recovering from ear surgery. Not only did she rediscover her love of reading, but she also found that her emotions could bring her own ideas to life. As her son grew stronger, so did the story of Eternal Mercury. She lives in Idaho with her husband and son (who made an amazing recovery). When she’s not hanging out with them, she’s working on her latest project, From the Water Tower.
