The youngest of five children, Drew Williams was born and raised in McKeesport, PA. After a three-year stint as a burger flipper, Drew gave higher education a chance, attending Slippery Rock and Indiana Universities of Pennsylvania. Since earning his Ph.D. in Literature in 1993, Drew has been teaching English and Creative Writing at North Carolina Central University in Durham, NC. Currently, he lives in Fuquay-Varina, NC with his wife Cathi and his two children, Elizabeth and Robert.  He has a cool website at http://www.drewilliams.com/ and he loves answering e-mail so nightterrors@hotmail.com.

A lifelong fan of horror, Night Terrors is Drew's first novel, but he promises more to come.
