Kevin Dickson is an Australian-American author who lives in Los Angeles with his husband George, three spectacular dogs, Miss Tuna, Graciela and Olivia, and an irascible parrot named Chapulin. After working as an entertainment journalist in Australia, Dickson relocated to Los Angeles in the late 90s, and found himself in the epicenter of the reality TV explosion. Bouncing between LA and New York for the next twenty years, he had a ringside seat for some of the most scandalous media events in recent history. Dickson exorcised his demons from that time in the thinly veiled tell-all bestseller Blind Item and its sequel, Guilty Pleasure before quitting the business forever. After a brief stint in a punk rock band that toured and recorded a well-received album, Dickson once again turned his attention to the written word, and the Vampire State series was born. These days, Dickson divides his time between writing, hiking, traveling and devouring films, books and music, and running a screen printing business with his husband.
