Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot once said, "I dream my picture and then I paint my dream."

​The inspiration for almost all my books comes from my dreams. I usually see a scene or an image, and my mind takes off from there. A few times, the characters even reveal their names in my dreams. I love stories. I love hearing them, and I love telling them. The books I write are my stories. Each character is a small piece of me. Each story reveals little bits of my thoughts, hopes, and often fears. When you read my books, you will know me.


I write under three names. Annie Rife is the name that I use to write contemporary romance stories. The characters are all unique but all are uniquely human. The stories all take place in or near present time. Lyra Zonder is the name that I use to write paranormal romance stories. These stories can go anywhere, literally in one case, to another planet. The characters and stories are different and require a little open-mindedness, but they are well worth the time. The third name I write under is EV Winter. These stories have ventured into the realm of literary erotica. Of course, the stories have well-developed characters and storylines. I can't write any other way. These stories are just a little more risqué than the general paranormal market.


I hope you enjoy the stories I tell ... the stories that come from my dreams.

Update: In this modern day of technology, we are being inundated by AI. I just want to take the time to say that nothing published by Dreamwriter.earth is ever done using artificial means. Everything pertaining to the books, from the ideas, to the characters, story, cover design, layout, editing, and publication is done completely by a human being.
