Brief Author Bio:

Jodi Lee has spent almost her entire life on the Canadian Prairies, which she credits for her over-active imagination. Nothing breaks the monotony like the occasional zombie chasing her two daughters, or a flesh-devouring mutant alien mosquito.

Jodi has been writing professionally for ten years and editing for nine, dividing her time between her own works and those of her clients via numerous outlets. Her work has appeared in Apex Digest, The Beltane Papers, The Blessed Bee, newWitch, Noneuclidian Cafe, Nocturnal Ooze, Night To Dawn and the Michelle Belanger-edited collection, Vampires – In Their Own Words.

Her short horror has been included in the anthologies Echoes of Terror* (Lachesis Publishing), Fried! Fast Food, Slow Deaths (Graveside Tales), Parasitic Thoughts (The Parasitorium Group), Tainted (Strange Publications), The Black Garden (Corpulent Insanity) and the upcoming Vampology, Witches, Horrorology, Zombie Feary Tales, Ladies of Horror, and Hideous Evermore.

She is the publisher and EiC of The New Bedlam Project - http://www.newbedlam.com.

* The novella published in Echoes of Terror was a compilation of excerpts from Jodi's first NaNovel. Every second chapter was dedicated to a different POV and timeline, and she pulled each of those to create "Interludes".

Synopsis: New Bedlam

In 1809, Dr. James Devizes made camp in a low valley some 2000 miles north-west of Portland, Maine.

With him were his wife (Arabelle), their three children (James Jr., Anne and Elizabeth), his colleague Dr. Arthur Holker, five employees and their families and six of the most cruel, twisted criminally insane inmates from Bethlam Hospital in England.

In 1810, the settlers christened the community New Bedlam.

And things started to go wrong...

* * *

A handful of outcasts meet in a darkened room above the New Bedlam Library, years after a scandal that wrenched them apart, scattering them to different corners of the globe.

Will they finally be able to set the past aside to save the town, or will they be destroyed along with it?
