TAMARA MERRILLTamara Merrill is the author of the Amazon bestselling books, Shadows In Our Bones and The Augustus Family Trilogy. Her work has been published in fourteen anthologies, numerous magazines, and online publications. She fell in love with books at a ver early age-all books, any genre. She reads incessantly and perhaps, as Louise May Alcott said, "She is too fond of books, and it has turned her brain." While reading may keep her from writing every day, it is also why she writes. Read-ing the Betsy-Tacy books by Maud Hart Lovelace caused her to pro-claim herself an author and resulted in her first published work, in the American Girl magazine, when she was nine years old.Tamara enjoys writing in many genres, including short stories, lit-erary fiction, historical fiction, humor, nonfiction technical manuals, and how-to articles. You might expect that she would blog, but she seldom does. Tamara finds writing inspiration anywhere and everywhere. The book you hold in your hand grew out of her interest in crows and their significance in mythology and folklore. The crow is a highly intelli-gent bird capable of social interaction. Perhaps it's true that Never-more told Tamara this story.Tamara currently resides in Coronado, California and Wickenburg, Arizona. She is available to speak at book clubs, writers and readers events, ` and teaches writing skills in the adult education system.Learn more about Tamara at: www.tamaramerrill.com.
