K.G. McAbee has had a bunch of books and nearly a hundred short stories published, some of them quite readable. She takes her geekdom seriously, never misses a sci-fi con, loves dogs and iced tea, and believes the words 'Stan Lee' are interchangeable with 'The Almighty.' K.G. writes steampunk, fantasy, science fiction, horror, pulp, westerns and, most recently, comics. She's a member of Horror Writers Association, Sisters in Crime and International Thriller Writers and is an Artist in Residence with the South Carolina Arts Commission. She recently received an honorable mention in Writers of the Future; that novella, entitled 'Blackthorne and Rose: Agents of D.I.R.E.' is available in the great Canadian magazine Pulp Literature. Her first mystery novella, 'Dyed to Death', won the Black Orchid Novella Award sponsored by The Wolfe Pack and Alfred Hitchcock's Mystery Magazine. She's also won a Dream Realm Award for Best YA Fantasy.
