edit data

Kris Schaale is a novelist interested in a wide array of genres, though her love of history and psychology always seems to find a way into her work. Having lived across the U.S., she fell in love with, and now resides in Bedford, Pennsylvania, with her partner John, two adult sons, Sam and Max, and two elderly dogs, Athena and Cinnamon.
When not living vicariously through her characters, she enjoys the outdoors, skiing, hiking, and kayaking. She uses her bachelor’s and master’s degrees in psychology from Pennsylvania State University to study and write about people’s behavior, motivations, and life journeys. Through story, she hopes her readers will learn and be enriched in their own understanding of people and life.
