A bond forged over drinks in a bookstore.  A chance fall of one college student onto another.  A shared love of writing and dreams of being published.  Mix all of these things together and you end up with the three women who make up the Trinity of Trinity Gateways.

Doris Ross

A confessed bibliophile, she has been reading all of her life.  She read her first adult book, Anne McCaffrey’s Dragon Flight,  during her second grade year after exhausting all the children’s reading material in the house.  It was this book that prompted her to think about what went into a crafted story and how that story was told.  That interest spilled over into the books that followed, fiction, non-fiction, and references on myth and folklore.  Finally, that interest had her progressing from just reading stories to actually writing them.  Once she realized just how much fun it was to play god in fictional worlds, there was no turning back.  She’s been writing ever since.

The author of the Descent Into Darkness series, she was published two e-books: Descent Into Darkness: His Own and Descent Into Darkness: Her Lord.  She is currently writing the third installment of the series.  For more information about her books, visit www.DorisRoss.com.
