Leslie Rule Biography & Facts

Leslie Rule (born February 25, 1958) is an American novelist, paranormal non-fiction author, magazine writer, photographer, and the daughter of true crime author Ann Rule. Early life and education Rule grew up in King County, Washington, the daughter of the late true-crime writer Ann Rule and William Rule, a high school English teacher who taught creative writing at Foster High School in Tukwila. At age 14, her mother introduced her to a serial killer. She attended an alternative high school, the Occupational Skills Center, and showed an interest in photography. She took classes at Highline Community College and the Evergreen State College. Career She was a contributing writer for Woman's World magazine from 1992 to 1994. She also wrote for Reader's Digest. Rule became interested in the study of ghosts while growing up in what was known to locals as a "haunted house" located on a Native American burial ground on Puget Sound. She has written five non-fiction books featuring paranormal stories, based on historical research and interviews of people who say they've witnessed ghost sightings. The Erie Times-News described her second paranormal book, Ghosts Among Us, as "stories of eerie visitations and paranormal experiences." She has also written two novels and a travel book. In October 2001, the St. Petersburg Times covered Rule's visit to Don CeSar Beach Resort and Spa in St. Pete Beach, Florida, where the spirits of Thomas Rowe, builder of the 1928 resort, and his lover, Lucinda, according to locals, periodically appear. When her book Coast to Coast Ghosts was released in 2001, The Advocate in Baton Rouge, Louisiana wrote that "Rule, daughter of true-crime writer Ann Rule, may have found her calling" in writing about ghosts. Upon the release of her seventh book, Ghost in the Mirror, The News Tribune wrote, "Leslie remembers sneaking a peek in her mother's grisly files that chronicled the lives of notorious murderers. So it's no wonder that Leslie Rule, 50, grew up with a yen to write about something creepy." An animal rights advocate, Rule featured the story of an aging boxer named Roxy in her eighth book, Where Angels Tread: Real Stories of Miracles and Angelic Intervention, released by Andrews McMeel Publishing in 2011. Rule's second novel, Kill Me Again, made Crown Books' bestseller list the week of its release in September 1996. Personal life Rule married musician Glenn Scott on November 11, 2011.
