<p>Amy Spector grew up in the United States surviving on a steady diet of old horror movies, television reruns, and mystery novels.<br/><br/>After years of blogging about comic books, vintage Gothic romance book cover illustrations, and a shameful amount about herself, she decided to try her hand at writing stories. She found it more than a little like talking about herself in third person, and that suited her just fine.<br/><br/>She blames Universal for her love of horror, Edward Gorey for her love of British drama, and writing for awakening the romantic that was probably there all along.<br/><br/>Amy lives in the Midwest with her husband and children, and her cats Poe, Goji and NekÅ.</p>
