Trained as an artist with a BFA in Illustration from the
California College of Arts and Crafts, Susan Krinard became
a writer in 1992 when a friend read a short story
she’d written and suggested she try writing a romance
novel. A long-time fan of science fiction and fantasy, Susan
began reading romance — and realized what she wanted
to do was combine the two genres. Prince of
Wolves, her first romance novel and one of the
earliest to feature a werewolf hero, was the result. Within
a year Susan had sold the manuscript to Bantam as part of a
three-book contract, and the novel went on to make several
bestseller lists.
Since then, she’s written and published over fourteen
paranormal and fantasy novels, and written stories for a
number of anthologies, both fantasy and romance. Both the
anthology Out of This World (which included
Susan’s “Kinsman”) and the novel
Lord of the Beasts appeared on the New York
Times Bestseller List.
Susan makes her home in New Mexico, the “Land of
Enchantment”, with her husband Serge, their dogs
Freya, Nahla and Cagney, and their cat Jefferson. In
addition to writing, Susan’s interests include music
of almost every kind, old movies, reading, nature, baking,
and collecting unique handmade jewelry and decorative crafts.
