Biography:
Cynthia D. Witherspoon is an award winning writer of Southern Gothic, Paranormal Romance, and Urban Fantasy. She currently resides in South Carolina, but spent three years in Fayetteville, Arkansas. Always an avid reader, she began writing short stories in college. She graduated with a Bachelor's Degree in History from Converse College, and earned a Masters in Forensic Science at Oklahoma State University Center for Health Sciences.
Witherspoon's focus on the paranormal stems from her fascination with all things supernatural or otherwise misunderstood. Ghosts, witches, moments in history - these are the inspirations for her stories. Her favorite writers are Stephen King, Margaret George, Philippa Gregory (just to name a few).
Cynthia Gael:
In November 2009, Witherspoon teamed up with award winning writer K.G. McAbee to co-write as Cynthia Gael. During their time writing together, the two of them have published two books in The Balefire Chronicles and have completed the third. Originally published through Gypsy Shadow Publishing, these books were pulled by the authors for undisclosed reasons in March 2011.
In Fall of 2011, their newest steampunk series will be released through Carina Press. This series, entitled The Brass Chronicles will play upon the Balefire Universe. The first installment is entitled Brass and Bone.
The publishing credits co-written with K.G. Mcabee will be listed below.
