ABOUT ME

Profile image for site.JPG

Welcome! I'm a writer going by Lilah Burton. When I'm not writing, I can be found teaching, exploring the great outdoors, or cozying up on the sofa with my dog and a good book.

I write a variety of fiction, mainly in the genres of thriller, gothic, and horror. I also write prose poetry. My writing tends to focus on the impact of place, nature vs. nurture, and female coming-of-rage.
