St. Crispinshide bio
Author has written 53 stories for Man From UNCLE. I've been a fan of "The Man from U.N.C.L.E." for 50 years; a professional journalist for over 40 years; a college professor for over 30 years; a fanfiction writer for almost 30 years, and a mom for 22 years. My hobby is writing The St. Crispin's Day Society series, a consistent universe that features the characters and extrapolated canon of the 1960's cult espionage series, "The Man from U.N.C.L.E." These days, my favorite authors are John Le Carre and Martin Cruz and my favorite television shows are Mad Men, Boardwalk Empire, Burn Notice, Chuck, Game of Thrones, and NCIS. |
