About Author, Theresa Sneed
Author Theresa Sneed graduated cum laude with a BA in education, and loves teaching her students, especially about writing.
Her books are unique; each story taking you places you’ve never imagined before.
She writes across five genres: mystery and suspense, fantasy, historical fiction/time travel, realistic paranormal, and nonfiction motivational.
All of Theresa’s fiction books have elements of sweet romance, and while none of her books have profanity or sexually explicit scenes, each book is intriguing and white-knuckle intense—the kind you can’t put down.
Her nonfiction books are So You Want to Write: A Guide to Writing Your First Book where Theresa has pulled together her fifteen steps to writing success; Fantastic Covers and How to Make Them, and Facing Mortality: Dreams & Other Significant Things a compilation of Theresa’s paranormal experiences that drove her to write her No Angel series and many scenes in her other works.
The No Angel series is the story about a guardian angel with an attitude, and the ever present, but misunderstood spirit world. There are five published books in the series with many more to come. Book one, formerly called No Angel, is now called Angel with an Attitude; book two, formerly called Earthbound, is now called Earthbound Angel; book three is Destiny’s Angel; book four is Earth Angel, and book five is Harold Angel Sing.
The Sons of Elderberry series has two books out called Elias of Elderberry and The Wood Fairies of Estraelia. Harry-Potterish—with wizards, fairies, elves, pixies, yōkai shapeshifters, and dragons, this story has it all. Theresa anticipates another three to five books to finish that series.
Escape is the story of a fifteen-year-old girl abducted by a corrupt sheriff in the 70’s. He keeps her captive in his cellar for five years until she escapes with his truck and his young daughter. Escape is book one in the Escape series. You Can’t Hide is book two, and Find Her Keep Her finishes this epic series.
Salem Witch Haunt was intended to be a standalone book, until the shocking ending made it apparent that the characters were not finished telling their story.
Hence, Return to Salem, where the second set of trials and hangings in Salem, 1692, are masterfully woven into the story. Salem Bewitched completes this series with the last of the trials and hangings and the peine forte et dure of Giles Corey.
As the ninth great-granddaughter of one of the women hanged as a witch in Salem, Theresa has a vested interest in this epic time travel. Thoroughly researched, all interactions with real people from that era are based on primary sources. In book one, the trial scene with Theresa’s great-grandmother, Susannah Martin, is taken from Reverend Samuel Parris’s handwritten transcript verbatim.
An additional book, Stranger than Fiction, is being compiled on the primary sources Theresa used in her Salem Witch Haunt series.
