Eileen Sheehan lives in her native upstate New York where she enjoys the beauty of the Southern Tier countryside with her two muses, Justin -a Maine-Coon cat and Jackson - an adorable miniature schnauzer. A prolific writer, Eileen began her writing career as a freelance writer for periodical magazines and newspapers. Then, she tried her hand at screenplay writing. Her screenplay, "When East Meets West" was a finalist in the 2001 International Independent Film and Video Festival at Madison Square Gardens, New York, New York. Finally finding her niche in novel writing, she lets her imagination lose with new adult/paranormal romance/thrillers with the author name of Eileen Sheehan. She creates historical romances (and plans on writing contemporary romances at some point) with the author name of Ailene Frances. (Frances is her middle name and Ailene is just another way of spelling Eileen!). Seeing how far out of the box she could stretch, she crafted an alternative romance-tragedy with the author name of E. F. Sheehan and has a few self-help books under her work name of Lena Sheehan. An incurable romantic, she has a love affair with at least one character... one book at a time.
