Xandra Barnett

Mistress of the San Inferno Valley's haunted hacienda (Peppergate Ranch). Chronicler of sacred and demonic places in the Simi Hills. Living in Los Angeles's best-kept secret, a vortex whose magnetism attracts spiritual seekers, astronauts, and the porn industry.

From a Shadow Man in our hallway to a Weeping Woman in the guest unit, the action never stops at Peppergate Ranch.  I'm compelled to write about this long, strange trip, if only to have something to pass on to the next family.

If I am following you, it's for a reason: your quirky profile, your sense of humor, your undiscovered book deserving of attention. If you are wondering why, ask! Psychologists don't bite and I'm not on Wattpad to psychoanalyze anybody.

Finally, I am a bit of an odd duck in that I am not interested in leaving my career to be a fiction writer.  I am writing fiction with no expectation of making money or finding fame. I write fiction simply for the love of the process.
