Maya BanksMaya Banks lives in southeast Texas with her husband and three children. When she's not writing, she loves to hunt and fish, bum on the beach, play poker and travel.

Escaping into the pages of a book is something she's loved to do since she was a cild. Now she crafts her own worlds and characters and enjoys spending as much time with them as possible.

Maya loves to hang out with readers and dish books. You can find her at the Writeminded Blog as well as at her Yahoo! group, the Writeminded Readers.
