About Rie

I have been writing professionally since the turn of the millennium—though I added the “Rose” to the end fairly recently. After putting up with me for fifteen years, my husband had earned the recognition. My earlier work appears under “Rie Sheridan.”

In that time, I have published 12 novels, 3 short story collections, 7 poetry collections, and contributed to innumerable anthologies, both as a writer and as an editor.

My stories have also been published on The Eternal Night, ShadowKeep, and Verge ezines, as well as the EOTU and Planet Relish websites.

My poetry has appeared in Mythic Circle, Dreams of Decadence, Apex & Abyss, Aberrant Dreams, Abandoned Towers, Electric Wine and Tapestry.

My most popular short stories to date are the Adventures of Bruce and Roxanne, humorous horror shorts, several of which were collected into two print chapbooks by Yard Dog Press and now are found in a perfect-bound paperback edition.

My most successful novels are the five volumes of the Steampunk series The Conn-Mann Chronicles. These are currently available on Kindle Unlimited. The first adventure, The Marvelous Mechanical Man, is also available on Audible.

I have also written the lyrics to dozens of songs for Marc Gunn. Most of these can be found on the albums “Don’t Go Drinking With Hobbits,” “Pirates Vs. Dragons,” and “As Long As I’m Flyin’,” though there are various outliers.

I live in Texas with my husband, Newell, and several cats, all spoiled rotten.

I love feedback and fan mail, so feel free to contact me at rie@riewriter.com. (This is a new email address, so we’ll see how it goes.)
