Steve Ward is a psychologist and writer of contemporary horror and suspense from the United Kingdom. Prior to unleashing his inner darkness upon an unsuspecting world in the form of unsettling tales of dread and despair, he unleashed his inner darkness upon unsuspecting students as a senior lecturer in psychology, with interests (and non-fiction publications) encompassing fear, anxiety, pain, and crime. As well as writing, he currently donates his expertise and time in the support of people in psychological distress.
He is also the world's greatest poker player, a fact that the world has thus far singularly failed to acknowledge.
