Thriller Contemporary Romance Time Travel Romance Horror BIOGRAPHY
I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. - Pablo Neruda.
Barbara Avon grew up Italian in the Niagara Falls Region and attended Notre Dame High School, and then Brock University. In 1999, she moved to Ottawa to pursue work and has worked for two major Ottawa area magazines. Being a shy kid in school, she created stories in her head, and when her Grade 9 English teacher awarded one of her short stories an A +, she knew that she would one day write a novel.
Avon is a multi-genre author. She’s written Romance, Romantic Thrillers, Time Travel, Mystery, Horror, and Paranormal Romance. Her work appears in various anthologies including Steering 23 Publications, Storytime for Grownups, and Beyond the Levee. In October of 2022, “Revived” was chosen as “Horror Book of the Year” by the “Feed My Reads” community, and in February of 2025, "Sultry Is the Night", received the Literary Titan Gold Medal Award for Fiction.
When she’s not writing, she’s experimenting in the kitchen, reading, watching 1980s movies, and working on her next novel. Avon has quoted: I believe in magic. Books are magic. Love is the most remarkable magic. |
