Stephanie Peterson

Stephanie Peterson was born in Willingboro, New Jersey and primarily grew up in Jackson, New Jersey. As a child, she was consistently making up short stories that usually starred her family and friends. While in high school, she began writing the Welcome to Keystone series as a way of quelling boredom during the summer between her freshman and sophomore years. After high school, Stephanie attended Georgian Court University where she studied English Education while continuing to write the Welcome to Keystone series. Upon graduating, she moved to Pennsylvania where she taught English for twelve years before transitioning into a career in administrative work. Throughout her writing career, Stephanie has expanded her writing to include a few poems, two fairytale screenplays, and a series of TV scripts for a half-hour dramedy show called Super Teacher. However, her main project is still the Welcome to Keystone series, which is now a set of over fifty novels that chronicles the dramatic lives of the citizens of a fictional Southern California town. The first novel of this series, A New Year, A New Beginning, was published as an amazon kindle book in September 2011.
