Gordon Bonnet has been writing fiction for decades. Encouraged when his story Crazy Bird Bends His Beak won critical acclaim in Mrs. Moore's 1st grade class at Central Elementary School in St. Albans, West Virginia, he embarked on a long love affair with the written word. His interest in the paranormal goes back almost that far, although it has always been tempered by Gordon's scientific training. This has led to a strange duality; his work as a skeptic and debunker on the popular blog Skeptophilia, while simultaneously writing paranormal and speculative novels, novellas, and short stories. Poison the Well is his eighth published novel, and the second in his Snowe Agency Series of psychic mysteries. Gordon blogs daily, but is never without a piece of fiction in progress-driven to continue, as he puts it, "because I want to find out how the story ends."
