Author : T. Masters-Heinrichs

I’m an avid reader who enjoys writing mysteries, science fiction, thrillers, fantasy and magic realism. My works have appeared in Voices: Journal of the Lake Winnipeg Writers’ Group, HalloweenAlliance.com and the Prairie Parent. Having lived my entire life on or near water, I now resides on Medicine Creek, in the Manitoba Interlake, with my husband Curtis, our two children, two cats in constant need of affection, one neurotic Border Collie, a geriatric gecko and one large rabbit that seems to be getting bigger. I have completed my first novel for publication, "Blood Is Black In Moonlight", a supernatural mystery set in the modern world. I’m now experiencing the joys of the editorial process and I hope the book will hit bookstores late 2010. “When I write, I’m writing to have my stories read. I believe as a writer I’m creating a contract with the reader. My job is to supply a great story, the best that I can. My goal is entertainment. I want people to be entertained by what I write. My hope is for people who read my work to say, hey, I read this story and it was great. For me that is the greatest compliment a writer can get, someone just walking up and saying, hey, I really enjoyed that story you wrote. And if I’m doing it right then my work will sell.” Favourite authors include Neal Stephenson (Snow Crash), Jim Butcher (Dresden Files), Arthur Conan-Doyle (Sherlock Holmes), J.R.R. Tolkien (Lord of the Rings), J.A. Konrath (the Jacqueline “Jack” Daniels Mysteries), Fred Saberhagen (Berserker Series), Kathy Reichs (Tempe Brennan Forensic Mysteries) and Keith Laumer ( Bolos Books: though other authors have also written some excellent work in this universe). Favourite shows and their writers (& sometimes producers) include the creators and writers of: the ‘Firefly’ and ‘Buffy the Vampire Slayer’ series by Joss Whedon, ‘Babylon 5’ series by J. Michael Straczynki, the U.S. navy series N.C.I.S. by Don Bellisario, and ‘Star Trek:The Next Generation’ and ‘Enterprise’ by Gene Roddenberry.
