Ellie Ann is a New York Times and USA Today bestseller of science fiction, thrillers, and comics. In her own words: I was born in the jungles of Thailand, was raised in a small farming village in Iowa, lived in the middle of a Texan desert, and now abide in the Ozarks. I get nerd points for being home schooled. I get nerd points revoked for being a basketball jock in high school. I get nerd points again for dressing as Aragorn for LOTR midnight showings. I’m trying to become a world-renowned geek. I'm a creative editor for Stonehouse Ink. I'm a producer of enhanced digital books for Noble Beast Books. And I write comics for Motionworks Entertainment. I like writing fairy tales, science fiction, thrillers, and am seriously interested in transmedia storytelling. I like reading and watching well-written adventures. Especially if they're hilarious. I’m specially qualified for the zombie apocalypse in that I know how to load and shoot guns, and I’m a long-distance runner. I’m specially qualified for the energy-crisis apocalypse in that I can ride a horse. I’m specially qualified for the dinoapocalypse or monster apocalypse in that I’m a certified nurse. And I’m specially qualified for the nuclear apocalypse in that I’m not afraid of death or growing a third eye. email: ellieannwrites@gmail.com twitter: @elliesoderstrom Facebook: Ellie Ann Author
