Scott Pixello
I’m a moderately-disturbed Brit who writes books. I’ve had seven books of non-fiction published with three different publishers under another name but as Scott Pixello, Luke I am Your Father came out last year and now I’m promoting Gothic Girl and Live Long and Prospero. I could tell you my real name but then I’d have to kill you and no-one wants that. I’ve got ideas for about another dozen novels so I’m pretty busy.
Unfortunately, my wish not to be rich & famous is somewhat at odds with conventional wisdom about how the Internet works, in which shyness is like Kryptonite to online sales. I don’t blog, tweet or even have a mobile phone. I’m probably the leader of a Luddite cult but no-one can p ... read more

Jeanette Battista graduated with an English degree with a concentration in medieval literature, which explains her possibly unhealthy fixation on edged weapons and cathedral architecture.

She gave up the bike when her daughter came along, although she still gets pummeled at the gym on a regular basis.
