A Bit About Me
Susan Person is an award-winning author most notably winning the Paranormal Category of the National Excellence in Story Telling (NEST) contest with Fallen in 2024. As a pre-published author, she was a finalist in the On the Far Side dark paranormal category and The Shelia Contest. She belongs to the Alliance of Independent Authors and North Texas Romance Writers in Dallas writing organizations. NTRW was where she actively started pursuing her career as an author. She writes badass empowered heroines who take charge in their dark paranormal and fantasy worlds. A lifelong learner, Susan returned to college a few years ago to pursue a degree in anthropology and graduated Summa Cum Laude.
Susan grew up on a thoroughbred horse farm before moving to the big city of Dallas. She considers herself a Texan but is loyal to her home state of Arkansas. A lover of travel, she has visited several countries with many more to go on her list—one of her favorite trips involved dowsing over ley lines at Stonehenge. The outdoors is a place where Susan finds inspiration and can often be found in a park, at the lake, or on a road trip. She especially loves the mountains. Furry animals hold a special place in her heart, and dogs tend to seek her out as a friend.
2024
2024 has been a different kind of year for me!​
​
The final book in Falling From Hell series releases in August on what would have been my parents' wedding anniversary. It's always sad to say goodbye to characters at the end of a series, but I promise to give you an epic ending to the trilogy as requested!
I've been working on a secret project which will be a new romantasy series, and I will be sharing more about it after FFH wraps up. It will be dark because I think you would be disappointed if it wasn't! I did some brainstorming with my editor recently on it, and I think we've come up with some new and compelling moments you will love!

I rang in the year in Las Vegas at the Kelly Clarkson concert. She has been one of my favorite artists since she won American Idol, and I believe that was the third time I saw her live. She made it such a fun night for everyone. In April, I visited Ireland for the first time to celebrate my birthday. It was such a warm and welcoming country. I'm not sure if I have any Irish readers, but if I do, your country is magnificent! I saw enough castles I lost count. My favorite part was the people though. I've never met nicer people in my travels. This summer I attended Inkers Con and got to catch up with so many wonderful people as well as learn some great things. Next up, I'll be returning to my home state and town for a signing in Fort Smith. Then in October, I'll be off to Romance Author Mastermind (RAM) for more time to hone my skills and connect with other authors.
​
I hope you are all having a fabulous year!
