S.K. Ballinger

Residing in Elkton, MD, I am thrilled to announce that two books have recently been released and are Sci-Fi thrillers. I began writing in 2014 and published my first novel in 2015. I've co-authored two horror novels and won 3rd place for the book 'Unfleshed' in the same year. In 2016, I took part in an anthology with all proceeds donated to a charity that the primary author chose. Since then, my wife and I are finalizing our Maryland business license as I continue writing my third sci-fi thriller titled 'We, R Vol.3'. In 2019 I was offered an opportunity to host a few shows on cecil.tv which focuses on local artists, writers, musicians and other talents that surround the local area.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

All goes to my family—first and foremost. 

Tawni Rae, Daniel Haynes, Marina O'Brix and the many authors and friends I have; you all increased my potential.  Also, to TJ and his wife Kris, you are not only great writers and editors, but more so, genuine friends.

There is so much to attribute to my father Stephen Ballinger, Grandfather Dewey Fadler, and my Grandmother Nina.

My children and their patience remain stalwarts of inspiration and adoration.

In addition, my wonderful partner Stephanie keeps the fire lit.  She is my favorite reader.
