R.E. Holding grew up in the Midwest in the 80s and 90s, often finding herself on the dirty low-pile carpets of Waldenbooks reading the newest Christopher Pike YA horror. She's an avid lover of stories of all kinds, whether it be through books, movies, tabletop games, etc., with a particular penchant for the things that go bump in the night. A scientist by day, she writes horror, sci-fi, and fantasy at night.
