The Mind Behind the Mayhem
Fantastical tales of legend and lore.
And just enough bad decisions to keep things interesting.
Steve Gilmore writes urban fantasy for the curious arcane minded. His stories are packed with supernatural mischief, mythic power struggles, and the kind of razor-edged humor that shows up right when everything is about to fall apart. Because it really should.
If it involves angels, giants, beasties or beer—you're in the right place.
Steve Likes Beer
Steve Gilmore is a West Point graduate and former Army grunt who grew up in rural New England, hailing from the small town of Acushnet, Massachusetts.
After serving in the Army, he spent much of his adult life across the southern United States, thanks to military assignments and a series of life choices that probably made sense at the time.
He eventually made his way back north for a while, remembered what winter felt like, and made a very strategic decision to return to warmer climates.
Today, Steve lives in Northwest Florida with:
His sassy wife
(and frequently correct)
A couple of dogs
Minimal effort, maximum comfort
Somewhere along the way, he realized writing about angels, gods, monsters, and supernatural chaos was a perfectly reasonable next chapter.
Fortunately, readers seem to agree.
Unapologetic Urban Fantasy
"This is where things get messy… fast."
There are no clean lines. No safe zones.
Just high-stakes, fast-moving urban fantasy where survival often comes down to grit, instinct… and a refusal to quit when everything goes sideways.
No apologies. No holding back. Just pure maniacal mischief.
A Metaphysical Fantasy Adventure with Edge
"A different battlefield. Same level of chaos."
This is where the supernatural gets strange, personal, and occasionally darkly hilarious.
It's a world driven by power, consequence, and just enough razor-edged humor to remind you that even in the middle of chaos… someone's still paying attention.
Steve would like it officially noted that writing in the third person feels… Unnatural.
But here we are.
So if you'd like to reach out about his books—or just say something interesting—hit the button below. Way easier than carrier pigeons.
Yes, that's actually him.
No mysterious assistant screening emails.
And yes… he'll probably read it.
Not Northwest Florida
Behind the maniacal mischief and supernatural hijinx… there's real life.
Steve shares that life with his darling wife, Sherrie, who runs their super secret international publishing conglomerate—Dead DragonFly Media.
Together, they can be found on the beaches of Northwest Florida, balancing creativity, sarcasm, and all the beer Steve can carry.
It's not quite as dramatic as the books.
Usually.
If you like your stories fast-paced, unpredictable, and just a little dangerous… you're exactly where you need to be.
