A Talladega, Alabama native, Pamela Lawson received her Bachelor’s Degree in Anthropology from the University of California at Berkeley. After threatening to write a book for twenty-plus2 years, Pamela finally did so, with Rise of the Ravenisha being her maiden novel. The second book, Rogue Ravenisha is well underway, and there are plans for a third installment, tentatively titled Revenge of the Ravenisha.
Pamela has been a fan of horror since childhood: staying up many a weekend watching creature features and reading books written by authors, such as Edgar Allen Poe and Mary Shelley. Pamela’s literary interests are far-ranging, from authors such as Stephen King, Anne Rice, PD James, Walter Mosley, James Lee Burke, Kathy Reichs, and Louise Penny to James Baldwin and Zora Neale Hurston.
Pamela lives in Northern California with her two felines, Ferg and Nikos. A horse-crazy/8 adult, she dabbles in dressage.
Book synopsis:
Rise of the Ravenisha
Fantasy Novel
By P. Grace Lawson
This story tells the tale of an ancient tribe of Dahomey warrior women who, having made a deal with the dark spirit La Panthère Noire, developed the ability to shapeshift into black panthers. They and their queen, Idia, lived in the mountains among the Fon for centuries until Idia betrayed her closest friends, selling them to America as slaves under false pretenses and ulterior motives. The story picks up in the present-day southern United States, where the women, now known as Old Generation Ravenisha, have decided the time has come for them to rise up and free themselves from the bondage of their past.
