Morgan Griffith was born in California and currently lives in central Florida. After small success as a dark fantasy poet and artist in the 1980's, with work appearing in Eldritch Tales; The Arkham Sampler; Grue; Supernatural Poetry; The Horror Show; Etchings and Odysseys and Leilah Wendell's Necromance, her focus turned to fiction. By day she does glass etching and sandblasting while listening to rock and goth tunes. She often writes by candlelight. Her trusted companion is a rat named D'Vito.A tribute poem to Clark Ashton Smith can be found online at The Eldritch Dark here:http://www.eldritchdark.com/tributes/poetry/231/emanations-and-whisperings
