With a degree in Criminal Justice, and a fascination with the supernatural, Black combines experience and imagination to create dramatic stories that are believable, but don’t end quite the way you would expect. An animal and nature lover, Black lives in the United States with her husband, a myriad of wild critters and two aliens disguised as cats. One of the furry darlings is rumored to be ET’s second cousin, but that has not been confirmed. Best known for her short story, "Mountain Justice," where a horse takes center stage in a story of violence and suspense, her first novel, "Race Into Murder," is also equine related. Other publications include Long Stories Short, an anthology, and three short stories, Close Your Eyes and They’re Gone, Treacherous Love, and “A Candle in the Darkness.” Contributions to Five Minutes at Hotel Stormcove, published by Atthis Arts, Rave Reviews for the Writers’ Soul, Watch RWISSA Write, and 31 Overlook Hotel complete the list.
