Inanna Skilihide bio
 Author has written 24 stories for Fantasy, Fantasy, Life, Love, Friendship, General, Thriller, War, Romance, Supernatural, Horror, Fable, and Mystery. I'm a dedicated novelist, poet and blogger. I've inventing stories for as long as I can remember and writing them down since before I learnt to read. I've published one book, Aigaion Girl. It was originally posted on Fictionpress and the readership and reviews I received on this site were what kept me writing - and editing, once the book was finished. Aigaion Girl is available all over the world in paperback and for kindle, in no small part because of the Fictionpress community. I write mostly fiction and mainly for an adult (as in mature, not X-rated) audience, but I will on occasion write a children's story or non-fiction piece. A lot of my stories have silly, improbable romances in them, because, well, who doesn't love a silly, improbable romance? I miss things that died out long before I was born, such as silent films, chivalry, clean air and the London coffee-house. In an attempt to revive the latter, I started Devereaux Court, a multi-author blog where writers of all ages, genres and levels of experience can gather, bounce ideas around and shamelessly plug their work. Please feel free to check it out. |
