More About the Author

Dave Newton was born in Hermosa Beach, California in 1959. Growing up in the 1960's and 70's, Dave was exposed to the Beatles as well as Alice Cooper, the US space program, and the Kennedy assassinations. As a boy, he collected Silver Age comics and began playing Dungeons & Dragons as a young adult.

After moving to rural West Georgia in his twenties, Dave worked with E. Gary Gygax as co-author of the Mythus Fantasy Roleplaying game system. Later, he formed a company with his friends William Spencer-Hale and Michael Hill to publish Rapture: the Second Coming and create the first web page of any roleplaying game company.

During his misspent middle years, Dave attended many fantasy and science-fiction conventions, promoting the various games he helped write and edit. In addition to game promotion, Dave participated in many panels at the conventions - and one of these was a panel called Twisted Bedtime Stories. Reading material from many talented authors of erotic horror, including his own, Dave developed a following over the years.

Now settled in North Alabama, Dave works as a network administrator and has begun to collect some of his earlier work and has found new inspiration to write and create new works of fiction and gaming.
