More About the Author

Rosemary Jones writes fantasy and collects children's books. Her novels for Wizards of the Coast include City of the Dead (an adventure set in the graveyard of Waterdeep) and Crypt of the Moaning Diamond (underground mayhem complete with sorcery and a small white dog). Her latest Forgotten Realms adventure takes place in Neverwinter: Cold Steel & Secrets.

A theater junkie since the age of 4, she now covers the arts in Seattle and has interviewed a truly eclectic and wonderful bunch of creative people over the years. They inspire her to keep typing!

Her short fiction occupies many different anthologies including Cobalt City Dark Carnival (Timid Pirate), When The Hero Comes Home (Dragon Moon), Cobalt City Timeslip (Timid Pirates), Close Encounters of the Urban Kind (Apex), Zero Gravity (Pill Hill), Realms of the Dead (WOTC), and others. Several are now available for Kindle!

Her most recent nonfiction foray was the Encyclopedia of Collectible Children's Books.

In 2012, look for her first superhero YA novel as well as new stories out in a variety of anthologies.
