An award-winning screenwriter and comic book creator, Nicole Jones-Dion specializes in weird horror, sci-fi and thrillers. On her Twitter feed, she posts strange and bizarre news stories that often become the inspiration for her next twisted work of fiction.
Nicole currently lives in Woodland Hills, California with her husband, three rescue dogs (two of them are tripawds), and a bunch of ungrateful fish.
