L. S. King has racked up many credits since diving into writing full-time over a decade ago. To date, she has published one novel, Deuces Wild: Beginners' Luck, as well as many short stories; authors a column for writers; teaches fiction writing online; has worked as a submissions editor and a copy editor on several magazines; and is managing editor of the online magazine, Ray Gun Revival. Sword's Edge, the first book in her sword-and-planet series will be available in December 2010. In the Deuces Wild universe, the second book, Stacking the Deck, is currently being written.

As a child, L.S. studied ballet and tap for many years, and also began martial arts training, eventually earning the rank of master. Music, on the other hand, has not been her strong suit. In her attempts to play the violin, she found new ways to destroy the eardrums and alleged sanity of those around her. She does love to drum, but unfortunately, refuses to do so in the presence of other people, which has slightly impeded her dreams of rock-stardom. Other items in her eclectic background are working in an electronics store, as a journalist, a school bus driver, and in a radio station.

When on the planet, this mother and grandmother lives in Delaware with her husband Steve, homeschools, and also works as a gymnastics coach. In her non-existent spare time she enjoys gardening, soap making, reading, and online gaming. She also likes Looney Tunes, the color purple, and is a Zorro aficionado, which might explain her love of swords and cloaks.
