About the author
J.R. Pestel was born in Pennsylvania, raised in New Jersey, and lived in Manhattan for a short time. Since 1999, she has resided with her husband, 2 dogs, and 2 cats in the beautiful southwest… In Arizona.
As a child, she loved the old black and white “monster movies” of the 1950’s and 1960s… As a matter of fact, she still does.
In her youth, she was rebellious. A definite child of the ‘60s and ‘70s. Her dream at that time was to become a rock ‘n’ roll star. She even played guitar in a few bands – mainly hard rock. To this very day, she still owns the 1973 gold top Les Paul guitar that she played back then.
She met the love of her life in 1978, and they married in 1985. Still happily married to this day, they embarked on many wonderful adventures together over the years. Not the least of which was being motorsports photographers. She started photographing motorsports with her husband in 1991 and they are both still active photographers – although now it is only races at Phoenix International Raceway. It was her husband who, in 2016, encouraged her to start writing.
She has had many occupations in her lifetime—musician, video store owner, hobby shop owner, race photographer, and even candle maker. But the one occupation she loves the most is being an author.
So, although she may not be Stephen King or Anne Rice, if you’re looking for a novel that will not only chill you, but entertain as well, give the books of J.R. Pestel a try.
