Stephanie Barmann is a freelance writer who was born just outside Niagara Falls in 1979; where she still lives today. Raised by her grandparents, Stephanie was encouraged to write as a way of venting frustration. This hobby grew over the years and has become more than just a hobby, but a way of life. When not playing with her five children, Stephanie can be found in front of her computer creating new characters that fall in and out of love.
