About Me

*NOTE* I am author Starr Sanders, who penned the novel BloodLust: The Beginning. BloodLust is the first novel in a trilogy and is available now.For Open Book, I wrote under a pseudonym (also called a pen name): Stephanie Sanders. I don't mind if you call me Stephanie when you leave me a comment. Just wanted to make sure you know who you're talking to!Everyone keeps demanding of me that I write more of myself. What you see is pretty much what you get with me. Like anyone else, I can often be complicated - I'm sure how some wonder how I can write a young adult novel while watching a porno. What can I say? I make it work. lol. My personality often contradicts itself. I've got a side of me that is wonderfully naive and child-like; and then I've got the raging pervert lurking in the shadows who likes everything dark (horror flicks, Rammstein, BDSM, etc.). It would be a lot easier on YOU if you didn't try to figure me out. It would take a lifetime. Just know that I love to write horror fiction (strong preference for vampire literature), paranormal romance, crime thrillers, romance comedy (I tend to be funny time to time, har-har), and young adult horror. To ease the confusion for you, I do write under different pseudonyms, as I mentioned previously. I say that I did this to ease the confusion, but it seems that more confusion has been added because of this. You can call me whatever you want. Just don't call me late for punishment. *evil smirk* Not all of you will get that...but again, it's okay.
Whenever you're reading something that I've typed on my profile, just keep in mind that even good girls have dark sides.
