Kari Kilgore started her first published novel Until Death in Transylvania, Romania, and finished it in Room 217 at the Stanley Hotel in Estes Park, Colorado, where Stephen King got the idea for The Shining. That’s just one example of how real world inspiration drives her fiction.
Kari’s first published novel Until Death was included on the Preliminary Ballot for the Bram Stoker Award for Outstanding Achievement in a First Novel in 2016. It was also a finalist for the Golden Stake Award at the Vampire Arts Festival in 2018.
Recent professional short story sales include three to Fiction River anthology magazine, with the first due out in the September issue. Kari also has two stories in a holiday-themed anthology project with Kristine Kathryn Rusch due out over the holidays in 2019.
Kari writes fantasy, science fiction, horror, and contemporary fiction, and she’s happiest when she surprises herself. She lives at the end of a long dirt road in the middle of the woods with her husband Jason Adams, various house critters, and wildlife they’re better off not knowing more about.
Kari’s novels, novellas, and short stories are available at www.spiralpublishing.net, which also publishes books by Frank Kilgore and Jason Adams.

An excerpt from The Real Gift of the Santa Train:
Saving the Day, and So Much More
With reinforcements on the way, now Paul was free to do his best to recreate that heart-melting smile of Susan's as often as he possibly could.
He turned and almost crashed right into her, and that did the trick.
"Oh, I'm sorry!" she said, drawing back, but not before Paul caught the enticing aroma of her hair, still trying to escape from the cutest pink scarf on the planet. "I didn't mean to sneak up on you like that. I've got six people on the way, and my friend Will promised to bring coffee and hot chocolate. We may have to wait on the sugary treats, but help will be here in about five minutes."
"Hey, that's great! I've got four guys headed in. A couple of them are bringing tools in case the holiday village needs a bit of a remodel."
Susan closed her eyes and held one hand over her heart, which gave Paul time to swoon a bit over how beautiful she looked, even in the overcast morning light.
