To my husband, Jeremy—Thank you for always being willing to read pages, even after a long day at work. You’re my everything. I cherish all of your feedback and notes, and strive to make you proud. You have my heart.
To the rest of my family—I love you more than words can say. Each and every one of you. There are way too many of you to list out, but you know who you are. Yes, I’m talking to you!
And to any aspiring writers out there, just do it. Read a ton. Write every single day.
“This is how you do it: You sit down at the keyboard and you put one word after another until its done. It’s that easy, and that hard.” –Neil Gaiman
“Be ruthless about protecting writing days, i.e., do not cave into endless requests to have ‘essential’ and ‘long overdue’ meetings on those days.” –J.K. Rowling

Aileen has a BS in Radio-TV-Film from the University of Texas at Austin, and an MFA in Writing Popular Fiction from Seton Hill University. She lives with her husband in Los Angeles, and spends her days doing her favorite things: reading books, creating worlds, and kicking ass.
