Darksummonsb1Where do you live and write from?

I live in New Hampshire with my husband, four kids, and two cats. I wish I could say I write from trendy coffee shops or from an office overlooking a beachside paradise, but the truth is I write from my living room amidst the noise and chaos.

Why do you write?

I can’t imagine not writing. Creating entire worlds and people to inhabit them is an incredible thing.

When did you start writing?

I wrote poetry in high school, but didn’t try to write a novel until I was in my late thirties. I guess I’m a late bloomer.

Tricia Drammeh 01

I’m Tricia Drammeh, wife, mother, and author. I’ve lived in Ohio, Georgia, California, and Missouri, but now make my home in New Hampshire with my husband and four kids. By day, I’m a number-slinger who works in accounting, but at night, I venture into the world of books.

I’ve been a book junkie since the time I could remember. I was one of those kids who loved it when the teacher gave us a new book for Christmas, and I always had a book (or two) to read. As a young child, I loved the Little House on the Prairie books and Nancy Drew. By eighth grade, I was reading Gone with the Wind, and anything by Stephen King or S.E. Hinton. My all time favorite authors are Anne Rice and J.K. Rowling. I’m also a huge fan of Lord of the Rings.
