Eleanor Sullo's Bio

When Eleanor Sullo and her husband visited Chambercombe Manor in 1994 on a trip to explore Britains's heritage, they discovered a secret room and a legend of skeletons, pirates, ghosts and buried treasure. The writer in Ellie could not resist casting their tale into a Victorian gothic romance. Wings ePress published The Moonrakers, the March 2002 bestseller, and Ellie has just returned from a trip back to North Devon, England, to promote her first published novel. As a bonus, she and Joe lived for a week in Chambercombe. After hearing "thumping" sounds in the night, she knows now that despite her other commitments, a sequel can't be far behind!

Ellie has also published a contemporary, The Emerald Eye, at another publisher, has a second contemporary accepted for 2003 publication, contributed to the newly published anthology, Let Us Not Forget, the stories of our country's military heroes, including her own dad, Edward Sampeck, and is contracted to Paulist Press for a memoir, 100 Seasons of Love. Her food column with The American Catholic, Soul Seasonings, her gardening, cooking and spiritual journey, and over 100 non-fiction pieces in print (McCall's, Northeast and others) and online, keep her from ever getting bored, as does her extended-family living on a small farm. Her husband Joe keeps their bags packed and ready for the next traveling adventure!
