About the author

Anna Kittrell has written stories for as long as she can remember. She still has most of her tattered creations--leftovers she was unable to sell on the playground for a dime--written in childish handwriting on notebook paper, bound with too many staples. Her love of storytelling has grown throughout the years, and she is thrilled her tales are now worth more than ten cents.

Growing up in an Oklahoma small town, Anna spent many a summer day on the lakeshores she often writes about. Today, she works as a middle school secretary in her beloved home town, where she resides with her high school sweetheart-turned-husband, Tim, and their two practically grown children, Evan and Brandilyn. She still loves visiting those muddy red lakeshores of her childhood, when she's not too busy writing about them instead.

Get Your More Than Fair "Share"!

Anna Kittrell is gifted in her ability to create likable and relatable main characters. When they are put into harm’s way, we are suitably on edge, devouring pages until we find out what happens. Her latest story, “Share,” is no exception. Autumn Liston is a sweet, pregnant, and gullible character. A series of events draw her into a Sci-Fi medical procedure with terrifying consequences. Another stand-out character is her smart-ass friend, Marlene. Check out “Share” to get your share of thrills!

The settings from one scene to the next are seamless. The author keeps the reader on edge until the final scene reveals the evil that exists in the most unexpected person. Great read, and I will read more by this author.
