My name is Elenora Rose Sabin. I write as E. Rose Sabin largely because people tend to misspell Elenora. I live in Pinellas County, Florida, with my two wonderful dogs Juliet and Pixie. I adopted Juliet, a pit bull mix, from a shelter. She'd been abandoned and picked up as a stray. She's very playful and very loving. Pixie, my newest dog, is also a rescue. She's still shy and easily frightened, but will improve with time, I'm sure. She's a beautiful dog, and she and Juliet love to play together.

I'm a former teacher, having taught Spanish and English for many years, mostly in middle school, but also as an adjunct instructor in junior college. I'm now devoting my time to writing fantasy, science fiction and novels. My stories have won many awards, and A School for Sorcery—my first novel—won the Andre Norton Gryphon award in 1992, an award then given by the late novelist Andre Norton for an unpublished manuscript of the best fantasy novel submitted by a new woman fantasy writer.

I am currently reissuing in new editions and in chronological order according to the events within them the novels of the Arucadi Series, of which A School for Sorcery is actually number six. The series will contain new volumes as well as ones being reissued in new editions and with new cover art. This series as well as other unrelated fantasy novels will be or have been published under my own imprint, Arucadi Enterprises, LLC.

I also edit and format books for other writers who wish to self-publish, but need some help in doing so. Visit my business web site at  www.arucadienterprises.com
