My name is Doug McIntire. I'm originally from Iowa, but I now make my home in central Texas, around the Austin area. I'm 45 years old and my wife's name is Maria. We have two children. Xavier (Alex) is 20 years old going to college at University of Texas - Permian Basin in Odessa. Sarah is 13 years old and is in the eighth grade.

I write speculative fiction, mainly horror. I'm currently shopping two novels around for agent representation.

I'm also working on numerous short stories that I'm constantly marketing.
