Daisy KElli's Bio
Daisy Kelli was actually born in Veneficium, but didn't remember her sorceress roots for Thirty-five years. When she was five years old, a bitter battle began for control of her homeland. The evil dark magic sorcerers fought for control of Veneficium against the good light magic sorcerers. Daisy and her sister, Adawna, are descendants of the royal family of Veneficium, the 51st great-granddaughters of Bran the Blessed and Christiana, the first High Sorcerer and sorceress Queen of Veneficium. The dragonstone amulet, which was passed on to Adawna and Daisy had to be protected from the dark magic faction. So Adawna wished herself and her younger sister to Earth. However, Adawna soon fell in love with a young human and did not want to leave Earth. She cast a memory charm upon her younger sister so that she could still watch over Daisy but never remember the homeland young Daisy loved so much.
Daisy eventually married a handsome human named Phillip Norman Kelli and had four children, and settled in Simi Valley, California. A skilled computer gaming programmer, she went to work for Ogre Quest Enterprises and helped to design several of the popular Ogre Quest RPG computer games. While working on a game called Ogre Quest, The Next Generation, geared towards teens and young adults, Daisy repeated the words of a growth summoning spell as she keyed it in, and accidentally summoned a real growth spell. The vines enveloped both her an her computer desk and took her back to her homeland beyond the Great Divide. She met her real family and befriended the royal family of Veneficium. She brought her husband and children, twelve-year old daughter Katherine, ten-year old daughter Amy, eight year old daughter Tess, and six year old son PJ with her to Veneficium and they own a vacation cottage in the beautiful seaside town of Ripa Beach. Since Daisy loves to write and genealogy is her hobby, she agreed to write the history of Veneficium and does so on her summer vacations in the kingdom of magic.
The Real Authors- Dana Ozak And Kelli Finger
Dana Ozak has been writing since the third grade when she wrote her first fantasy romance, a tale of a goblin king searching for his goblin bride who meets a ghost, monster, and skeleton in his travels, and loved the praise she received from her mother and teacher on her fairytale Halloween class project. She finds plenty of inspiration from in love from her husband Phillip, and son PJ, and finds inspiration by researching her other two loves- History and mythology. Admittedly, she was a bit of a cynic about romance novels before she met her hubby at age nineteen, but after falling in love with Phillip, the man who taught her that there is such a thing as happy endings, she picked up as many romance novels as she could read and never looked back. A twist of fate made her pursue her dream of publication with full force and it paid off with a publication of a short story in a small e-zine and her full-length Ohio Historical Romance, the Locktender's Daughter, getting picked up by Wings E-press in May of 2007. She met Kelli in an online critique group and became fast friends with her. Dana knew she found a writing soul mate when they began chatting and working together because their imaginations just seemed to click. Dana also writes historical and fantasy tales under her pen name of Marguerite Arotin and is a member of EPIC. When she's not writing, Dana is usually keeping her house in order, helping her son explore the realms of his imagination, or goofing around on the net and calling it "research." She has lived in the suburbs of Cleveland, Ohio all her life and no matter where her life or imagination may take her, she will forever be a proud buckeye chick and mid-western girl.
Kelli Finger writes passionate and heartwarming historical and contemporary romance as Abbey MacInnis, and steamy erotic romance as Eve Knight. She is currently serving her first term as Secretary for the Greater Detroit chapter of RWA. She lives with her family who give her all the love and support she needs to keep writing, and prowling down this uncertain path toward publication.
