edit data

E. Denise Billups is an American author born in rural Alabama, raised in New York City, formed by a multicultural environment. Previously a Wall Street Portfolio Analyst, Denise now writes haunting paranormal mysteries, suspense, and thrillers. The rigors of ballet shaped her childhood and earlier years — a discipline she carried into her writing. Today, Denise lives in New York City, where she’s a fitness fanatic by morning, a writer by day, and an avid reader during her free time. When she’s not penning her next thriller, she’s lost in the pages of a book, indulging her passion for literature or surrounding herself with friends and family.

The Blight Is Here!

It’s official! The Blight, Book Two of the Beauford Grove series, is live.

This one took me somewhere darker than Book One. The Veidrel mythology deepens, the stakes rise, and Eva is forced further into a reckoning she didn’t choose. If Beneath Beauford Grove introduced you to the haunting at the edges of this family’s history, The Blight pulls you into its center.

“A dark and twisty supernatural

“Honestly, I never really understood the glorification of Fridays & weekends.

I don't want to build a life and career, where I spent five days a week waiting for the weekend. No!

I want to enjoy my life, and don't wish any weekday away. I want each day to matter to me, in some way, even if it's a small tiny way.

I love my life. Everyday. That's the spirit we should convey all around us.”
