Author Bio
Jean Marie Bauhaus is both a traditionally-published and indie author of seven novels and counting, as well as a number of novellas and short stories. She’s also a multi-passionate creative and solopreneur who juggles more businesses and writing projects than any sane person should ever attempt at one time.
Born and raised in Oklahoma, she currently makes her home in the middle of the woods deep in the Ozark mountains with her husband of 19 years, a 14/10 German shepherd named Dixie, a sassy black cat named Olive, a calico bunny named Bunsen Honeydew, two box turtles and a flock of chickens. When she’s not writing about ghosts, zombies, vampires and other things that go bump in the night, she can usually be found alongside her husband trying to tame their five acres of wild woodlands and shape it into some kind of homestead, or trading her keyboard for a crochet hook and a ball of yarn and curling up with a mug of tea and a paranormal or fringe theology podcast.
Or she’s at the microwave, re-heating her tea because she forgot to drink it before it got cold. #writerproblems
Jean has a Bachelor of Science in Social Science, Psych/Soc emphasis, which means she’s smart enough to finish college but not smart enough to choose a major that’s actually useful. But it comes in handy for building psychological character profiles and developing post-apocalyptic societies.
Easily spooked by ghost stories as a child, teen Jean faced her fears by forcing herself to watch horror movies and read Stephen King until she fell in love with the genre. As a grown-up (more or less, depending on who you ask), her tastes expanded to include a broader range of speculative fiction and romance, but she keeps coming back to the supernatural and paranormal. She has a strong affection for all things zombie-related, which is a good thing considering she wrote an entire trilogy in that genre.
