Stephannie Beman presently lives on a small ranch in Southwestern Wyoming in the original homestead cabin, far enough from the nearest neighbors to be considered a hermit and surrounded by a forest, meadow land, mountains, and a river. Stephannie, her husband, and two daughters care for a small herd of cattle, three stray cats, and a dog. She enjoys the challenges of motherhood, ranching, and writing.    She writes whatever story calls to her at any given time, whether it is set in prehistoric earth, the contemporary or paranormals worlds, historical, western, mythical, and futuristic. If she can image a strong magnetism existing in a particular place or time, chances are, she’ll write the story.    Stephannie is currently working on the first books of the Valkyr Series, RIDE OF THE VALKYRJA, and Gods of Mount Olympus, LOVING THE GODDESS OF LOVE.

My first writing award was in 2nd grade when I won the chance to join the Young Authors Conference. My last writing achievement was when I was 18-years-old and my church published a series of poems and plays I had written.
