Jennifer Sternberg wrote her first horror story at the tender age of 6 when her Catholic school teacher told her to create a book about the twelve apostles. The result was a rather disturbing depiction of the very gruesome deaths of each apostle. Things only got worse from there as she discovered a love of horror and heavy metal. By age 12 she was fully indoctrinated into the world of Stephen King and when given the choice she would rather read a book than do pretty much anything else.

The movie she finds the most relaxing after a hard day at work is the original Halloween (1978). She considers Laurie Strode to be the greatest final girl in the history of final girls and will fight anyone who disagrees.

Recently, Jennifer has begun writing her own horror stories (sans apostles), which is what led her to Malevolent Dark.
