Jacquelyn Patterson, a freshly minted author, has made her literary debut with the gripping novel, "Stalked." But she isn't stopping there. She is currently penning her second book, "Kidnapped," a sequel that promises to continue the chilling narrative established in "Stalked." Jacquelyn's writing journey began in high school, where she honed her craft through the creation of short stories and poems. Over the years, she filled countless notebooks with her tales, sparking the inspiration for her debut novel. Her stories, set in her hometown, are grounded in familiar locales, giving them an authentic touch. However, the characters that populate her narratives are purely fictional, born from her vibrant imagination. Her writing style has been shaped by a diverse range of influences, including the Gothic family sagas of VC Andrews, the suspenseful thrillers of James Patterson, the horror masterpieces of Stephen King, and the supernatural fantasies of Charlene Harris. Currently, Jacquelyn is enjoying life in Arkansas, where she shares her home with her future husband and son. As she continues to write, readers can anticipate more captivating stories born from her unique blend of suspense, realism, and character-driven narratives.
