Linda S. Cowden was born in San Francisco, California and raised in and around Houston, Texas. She graduated from TomballHigh School in 1987.
Proud to have served in the Air Force outside of Sacramento, California, she was a driver for the Transportation Squadron at Bealle AFB. She holds a black belt in the Korean martial art of Kuk Sool Won.
Fond of travel, history, grammar, psychology and sociology, among other diverse interests, her love of spooky things started early and grew into a healthy obsession with surprising speed. Often a fan of the fiends of literature and cinema, she was given the moniker ‘Auntie Maim’ as she began work on tales of the oft-maligned Grim Reaper.
Linda currently resides near Houston in San Leon, Texas, surrounded by cats, horses, and the occasional dog.
