Kara Stefanowich

About

Kara Stefanowich grew up the old country way. She walked 25 miles to school in 10 feet of fresh snow bare foot. Well, not really. But close. She grew up on a mountain in Northern Maine on a farm in a cabin with no electricity and no running water. Growing up the old fashioned way, with no TV and lots of work to do on the farms, her imagination ran wild.

Once she moved to the city she soon missed her roots and remembered the stories she'd thought of over the many years of her old country life. So she put paper to the type writer and began her first novel. After writing several novels and hiding them under her mattress she soon discovered Twitter! The magical and magnetic twitter fascinated her and gave her the tools and freedom to join minds with other great writers/thinkers. This gave her the edge she needed to publish her first, second and now third book, Hostage.

Story Behind The Book

I grew up in Northern Maine, which is where this story took place. It's exactly as desolate as I described it, so in all my years living there I remember thinking how perfect a place it would be for a serial killer. How easy it would be to commit such heinous acts without ever being suspected. So when I decided to get serious with my writing, that was the first story to grace my type writer...yes, typewriter. ;)
