Early life and education

The youngest of seven children, Stone was born in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manchester Manchester] , England, which forms the partial backdrop of her novel "Killing Kiss" and is the common location of the Vampire Gene Trilogy. She graduated with a BA (Hons) in "English and Writing for Performance" at University of Bolton, a "PGCE" at [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manchester_University Manchester University] and her "MA in Creative Writing" also at Bolton. "Gabriele Caccini" was originally written as her dissertation. Stone hit the [http://www.accringtonobserver.co.uk/news/s/523585_teacher_in_vampire_web_storm headlines] in February 2002 after she published Gabriele Caccini under the name 'Paigan Stone'. She was forced to resign her post at St Christopher's High school, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accrington Accrington] , Lancashire, England, because the book was about vampires. She was quoted at the time as saying 'it was devastating for myself and my family;' Stone's novel was re-edited and re-released as "Killing Kiss" in September 2008 by The House of Murky Depths. Writer Tanith Lee said about "Killing Kiss": 'A deceptively readable date with darkness – watch your step! This book is lit for the much more discerning chick (and cock) who likes to walk in the shadows. Relax with it, but be prepared for sudden jewels and little masterpieces – and the rug to be pulled from under your feet.’
