Eastlick and Other Stories (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781611383676)

Shannon Page was born on Halloween night and spent her early years on a back-to-the-land commune in northern California. A childhood without television gave her a great love of the written word. At seven, she wrote her first book, an illustrated adventure starring her cat Cleo. Sadly, that story is out of print, but her work has appeared in Clarkesworld, Interzone, Fantasy, Black Static, Tor.com, and many anthologies, including Love and Rockets from DAW, Subterranean's Tales of Dark Fantasy 2, Flying Pen Press's Space Tramps: Full Throttle Space Tales #5, and the Australian Shadows Award-winning Grants Pass. Her debut collection, Eastlick and Other Stories, appeared in October 2013 at Book View Café; her first novel, Eel River, a hippie horror tale, was published by Morrigan Books one month later. 2014 will see the publication of Our Lady of the Islands, co-written with Jay Lake, and The Queen and The Tower, first book in The Nightcraft Quartet, from Per Aspera Press. Her editorial work can be seen in the anthology Witches, Stitches & Bitches, from Evil Girlfriend Media. Shannon is a longtime yoga practitioner, has no tattoos, and is an avid gardener at home with her partner Mark Ferrari in Portland, Oregon. Visit her at www.shannonpage.net.
