Trisha J. Wooldridge (child-friendly T.J. Wooldridge) is an award-winning pan-genre, pan-media chaos word witch. Find her in the Shirley Jackson Award-winning The Twisted Book of Shadows; some HWA Poetry Showcase volumes; all New England Horror Writers anthologies (that she didn’t edit); Don’t Turn Out the Lights: A Tribute to Alvin Schwartz’s Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark; Pseudopod podcast; 34 Orchard literary journal—and her first collection, Where Monsters Pray. Her fantasy duology, Children of Earth and Fire from her 27 Kingdoms fantasy series (backed at 200% on Kickstarter!). She also lovingly tortures consenting authors with her editing talents, resulting in over 400 books (several bestsellers and award-winners) she’s helped bring into the world—including Wicked Westerns, the newest NEHW anthology. She spends mystical “free time” with a very patient Husband-of-Awesome; a tiny witch and large witcher kitty pair; and a rescued bay gelding. www.anovelfriend.com
