Monsters of the Midwest: True Tales of Bigfoot, Werewolves, and Other Legendary Creatures - Paperback

Jessica Freeburg has always been inquisitive and loves all of the challenges that life--and the afterlife--have to offer. As the founder of Ghost Stories Ink, Jessica has performed paranormal investigations at a variety of reportedly haunted locations.

She has written young adult fiction, middle-grade narrative nonfiction, and short stories for children and adults. She has served as a news correspondent for the wildly popular paranormal radio show Darkness Radio and on the editorial staff of FATE magazine. She is the Assistant Regional Advisor for the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators in Minnesota.

Jessica also enjoys working in screenwriting and documentary production. She lives in Minnesota with her husband and three children.

Natalie Fowler has been fascinated by ghost stories since she was a little girl--she could never learn enough about ghosts. Once a practicing attorney, now Natalie does freelance editorial work and writes her own stories. She is a staff editor for FATE magazine and Galde Press.

Natalie is a self-proclaimed research geek and could easily spend hours in the library with dusty old books. She is a paranormal investigator for Ghost Stories Ink, a group of authors and illustrators who go on ghost hunts for creative inspiration. She is always happy to fulfill any of the team's research needs.

Together with Jessica Freeburg, Natalie co-edited the group's first anthology, Night Visions, a collection of short stories inspired by their paranormal investigations.
