About the Author

S. L. Stark 

 

Surrounded by the timber and cornfields of a rural Iowa town, S. L. Stark is following her dreams by conjuring up nightmares in her dark fantasy novel, The Temple of Nede. When she’s not hunched over her manuscript, challenging readers to delve deeper into the eerie corners of our very existence, she prefers to get lost in others’ books. Her degrees in English, social work, and creative writing allow her to channel a diverse knowledge of human nature into the creation of otherworldly narratives. Amidst the mystique, Stark finds grounding in the love of her husband and three daughters, creating a delicate balance between the realms of fantasy and reality.
