Shannon Connor Winward

Shannon Connor Winward is a poet and author of fiction for children and adults. Her current projects involve converting young minds to magical realism through childrens’ literature and pimping her novel about a female stalker haunted by her dead — and disapproving — father.

Shannon’s a sucker for ghost stories (obviously), fairy tale-tinged fiction, and pagan gods. She is also a devotee of open mic poetry, but insists on reading from the page; she’s afraid that if she looks you in the eye from the mic she will fall in love with you, and really. Who has time for that?

Shannon lives in Delaware with two kings and a cat named Wolf. Watch for more of her work in Isabelle Rose’s Twisted Fairy Tales: Volume Two and Greek Myths Revisited, or visit her at ladytairngire.livejournal.com.
