From a very young age, Rose Marie Wolf was interested in things that weren't quite normal, so it was no surprise when she grabbed her crayon and started scribbling out short stories about vampires, werewolves, ghosts, fairies, elves and all manner of paranormal creatures.

Her combined love of writing and the supernatural grew and, in 2002, she began writing on her first serious work, a short story about werewolves she called "Sweet Moon Dreams". A few years later, with the help of her fiancé-now-hubby, she developed the story into a novel-sized manuscript.

Rose Marie lives in Indiana, with a menagerie of pets, not including her husband and his mother. She is currently working on her next supernatural adventure and she encourages readers and fans to join her discussion group on Yahoo! to chat about books, writing, publishing and her upcoming releases.

While she specializes in short stories involving werewolves and vampires, she does venture into other aspects of writing beyond the paranormal. She offers many of her short stories and poems for your reading pleasure. Please check out her Short Stories & Poems and feel free to review. She always likes to hear from her readers and fans, but please do not send her unsolicited works, like stories or poems. They will deleted, unread.

If you have any questions or comments, please email her.

I would like to thank everyone who has visited my website, my blog, who has purchased my books, read them--whether you have liked them or not. It is because of all of you, that I keep going. About three years ago, my life was turned upside down when my mother died from a long-term condition. At that point, I stopped writing.

My mother had been my biggest fan, a reader practically from birth. We often joked that the reason I loved to read and write was because she did so much reading when she was pregnant with me. But with my biggest inspiration gone, I could no longer pick up a pen. But, with the help of friends--and even strangers who had commented on works posted online--I broke out of my slump. I reworked my first novel into a sellable manuscript and subsequently have been on the path ever since.

So, I thank you, the reader, and I thank you, Mom, for seeing potential in me all along. Without any of you, I would still be unpublished and stuck in a rut.
