Samantha Shakespeare

I was born in Tennessee and lived there for the first nineteen years of my life before relocating to the Kansas City, Missouri area, where I currently resides.  I am married and have one biological child and two step-children. I graduated college in 2008 and was inspired to start writing in late 2009.

Shakespeare is not a fictional writing name -  I come from a long line of Shakespeares on my mother's side of the family. My grandfather's name was William Shakespeare - no relation to the English poet and playwright.

I want to give a special thanks to my publisher, Buddy and Schwamples, for without them all of this would not be possible. For all the late nights of editing, website creating, brainstorming, and even just the opportunity to get to this point - I thanks you.
