You've just surfed onto the official page of Trina Allen. I am a longtime writer who recently turned to fiction. I do not consider myself a genre writer, but instead write literary stories about survival. Each of my characters eventually finds the inner strength to overcome whatever challenge I have created for him or her. I hope the humor that I am able to incorporate into their stories makes the reading enjoyable. In order to support my writing habit I develop educational science tests by day. I live in Raleigh, North Carolina, with my husband, writer and poet Harry Calhoun. Our beloved black Labrador is featured in Harry's new book The black dog and the road. Looking for a writing group? Raleigh Fiction Writing Group is looking for active writers of book-length and short fiction ... share successes and rejections, critique one another’s work, and celebrate the joys of writing.
