About Lex

Lex has been writing ever since she could hold a pencil. At age eight, she submitted poetry for school contests. In her teens, she wrote short stories and more poetry. By the time she was in her mid-twenties, she’d written lyrics for her band No Exit’s songs, and had written a novel called Note By Note about a rock star. The novel was written long hand (gasp!) and has since been lost, but Lex continued writing.

A few years ago, Lex got caught up writing in an online paranormal serial story. As she began to write more and more, fans of the story told her she needed to start writing things to submit to publishers. After starting a blog, and becoming involved in the blogosphere, more people and even some authors, began to encourage her to submit her writing. That is how this all began.

Lex is first, and foremost, a mom. Her teenage daughter Nikki shares her love of loud music and in particular the band Motley Crue. Born and raised in Salinas, California, Lex moved to Southern California in 1993. She lives in Orange County with her DH Rott, a long haired musician with a Queensryche tattoo. She loves loud music, reading hot stories, loves hanging out with her friends and reading their blogs, enjoys building her own computers, and has a propensity for having very weird vivid dreams about Nikki Sixx.

You will find Lex all over the internet. The domain she’s had for 15 years has morphed into Winter Writes (Winter is the name most people know her by). You will also find her writing at a serial story called The Bar. Because of her love of writing vampire stories her personal blog, written under the name Winter, is called Sunlight Sucks. She also blogs as one of the Flirty Author Bitches. She runs numerous other websites, created a blog for Nikki and a forum for her World of Warcraft guild Questicles, created a website for author Trinity Blacio, and runs RottNRoll Productions with Rott.

Lex also works full-time at a cemetery as the network administrator. You’ll also find her at DerbyFever, a thoroughbred horse racing sim that she’s played for more than six years and where she’s a message board moderator.

Lex is an EPIC author and a Covey Associate. By the end of 2009 she will have been published by six different publishers: Pink Petal Books, Noble Romance, Freya’s Bower, Wild Child Publishing, Midnight Showcase, and Cobblestone Press.
