Hi there. I’m Mallory. I am an author specializing in book club/literary fiction, horror, erotica, and paranormal romance. I am also the Founder and Director of a publishing company, a copywriter, an editor, paranormal investigator, and a Mom.

I’ve been writing and journaling my whole life, but when my debut book (and immediate #1 New Release), Making Friends with Ghosts (Beyond the Fray), was released, a fire was lit within me. I dove in with both feet to the world of writing professionally.

In the summer of 2023, I co-founded a small publishing imprint, Dark Village Publications, focusing on anthologies from indie authors. Our first horror anthology, Dark Village, was released in September 2023 to great acclaim. I then wrote the finale novella of our steamy Beasts of Grey Haven trilogy, His to Control.

My writing has also appeared in Twelve Months of Smut, Twelve Months of Horror, and Six Troubles, Seven Sins. My most recent full-length novel, Desperate Creatures was released in December 2023. It is currently nominated for 7 Indie Author awards.

I took a huge leap and founded Fox and Dagger Publishing in May 2024 to publish full-length novels from indie authors without literary agent representation.

I hold a B.S. with Honors in Human Development and Family Studies from Penn State University, and certifications in editing, proofreading, and social media management. I live near Philadelphia, PA, (Go Phillies!) and I have a soft spot for oat milk lattes and mushroom pizza (though not together, I assure you).

I’m so glad you’re here with me. Subscribe to my email newsletter to ensure you don’t miss a thing. Find me on Instagram @author.malloryc.
