About me: My name is Traci Hall and I
love to write. Now that my kids are in college (yikes!) I figured I'd have more time to put pen to paper,or fingers
to keyboard, but that's not the case at all. I stillfind myself fighting for writing time. I work at Starbucks - an excellent
company to work for if you need a flexible schedule, and market, promote and edit. I have three dogs,and one cat.
I'm an active member of Florida Romance Writers - I also write medieval paranormal romances (yes, really mushy stuff)
under the name Traci E. Hall. Writing Young Adult, however, is something near and dear to my heart. I detested
being a teenager, since I wasn't very good at it, so writing stories that have mostly happy endings is a great way to restructure
my past!
My goal is to provide fun, sort of scary stories that
will keep you coming back for more! Rhiannon and her friends are unpredictable, but that just makes them more interesting.
I mean, wouldn't you rather sit next to a girl who can make pencils float through the air than Miss Teacher's Pet who
does extra credit all the time? Pu-lease!
I feel totally qualified
to write YA because I have two teenagers who keep me honest - I was a teacher's assistant for practically ever, so I
know about all kinds of kids. Even better, I am a Stephen King fan, and a horror movie buff. But best of all, when I was about
ten, my cousins and I would camp out in the backyard - I kept those boys shaking in their Ninja Turtle sleeping bags with
my ghost stories - to this day they remember Barnaby Bones
