Ms. Missy Jane is the alter ego of a Texas mother of four who has been married to the same wonderful man for over sixteen years.

A few years ago Missy finished reading a book by Mercedes Lackey and James Mallory, titled The Outstretched Shadow, and thought “Now, what if…” and a monster was created.

Missy now spends most of her time lost in worlds of her own making alternately loving and hating such creatures as vampires, shape-shifters and gargoyles (to name a few).

When not writing, she spends her time reading, taking photos of her four beautiful daughters and training her husband to believe she’s always right.
