Shannon Dittemore is an author, speaker, and contributor to the blog Go Teen Writers, which was one of Writer's Digest's 101 Best Websites for Writers. Her book Winter, White and Wicked was called a "propulsive, adrenaline-fueled ride through a dangerously thrilling and chilling landscape" by the Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books. When she's not at her desk, she can be found in the wilds of Northern California, adventuring with her husband, their two children, and a husky named Leonidas.
