About the BellaOnline SF/Fantasy Books Editor
Evelyn Rainey
Evelyn Rainey lives very quietly in a small southern town in the physical realm but is an international/outer-space explorer and adventurer via the net.
Evelyn Rainey´s first novel Minna Pegeen was published in 2011 (Fantasy ISBN 978-1935361381 Comfort Publishing) and was followed by Bedina´s War in 2012 (Science Fiction ISBN 978-1936695881 Comfort Publishing). Perky’s Books & Gifts (Urban Fantasy ISBN 9781939065377 Bedlam Press 2013) her third novel which began to take form while she worked at Books-a-Million for six years as a part-time paperback specialist and Red Badge. The Island Remains (Historical Fiction ISBN 978-1-61160-845-8 Whiskey Creek Press July 2014) and Laughing Humans (Science Fiction ISBN 978-0692518908 Portals Publishing August 2015) followed and helped cement the "one book a year" goal she set for herself back in 2010: Comes the Warrior ISBN-13 978-0997051247 (Christian Science Fiction BLISSbooks 2016), Daisy and the Three Shoes ISBN 978-1946469076 (Children´s Fiction GingerSnap.Press 2017), and a series of Homework through the Year (unavailable at this time.) She is currently working on three historical fictions (one set in the early years of the Christian church in the Roman Empire, one set during the century following 1066 in the newly conquered England, and one which follows the women who were part of the crusades. She also is continuing her series of children´s books, the seven-book series which follows Comes the Warrior, and her YouTube biblical studies (youtube.com/channel/UCaTOJPiIOVY_8inDy0X0zwA).
Guest author appearances have included the 2012 Carolina Renaissance Festival, ALT*Con, CreativeComicCon and Necronomicon as well as dozens of guest speaker events where she taught various aspects of Writing. She has also been published in anthologies, magazines, columns, and newspapers.
For ten years, she facilitated Writers for All Seasons and later, for another five years, Writers at Unity until the pandemic stopped face-to-face meetings. She has been an educator for over four decades with certifications in Early Childhood Education, Elementary Education, Middle School Integrated Curriculum, English for Speakers of Other Languages, Gifted Education, and Journalism. She retired from teaching in 2020 (perfect timing) and has begun her graduate studies in Christian Biblical Studies.
Evelyn was the Veterans columnist for BellaOnline for three years and believes without a doubt that this was what helped her develop the discipline and experience to become a published author. Now, she is delighted to return and write this column for lovers of Science Fiction and Fantasy books.
