Pulse-pounding high adventure, painstaking attention to detail, carefully drawn characters who step off the page and into your life. Stephen and Anne MacEachern are the authors of over eighty internationally published novels (with sales in the tens of millions of copies) and numerous short stories. Excitement, realism, and profoundly personal involvement with the story's outcome are the hallmarks of their fiction. Stephen has also written over a thousand articles, columns, features, and interviews for magazines and newspapers. At one time, he served as associate editor of two national magazines, one a trade publication. Stephen is currently writing columns each month in three national magazines and has a blog on Down Range TV. He has written, produced, and performed over five hundred radio programs, these at one time syndicated across the Southeast.
Anne cut her writing teeth working on the house organ of one of America's largest and most influential corporations. Thousands of Anne's color and black & white photos have appeared in a wide range of magazines in the United States and in Europe. Anne, assisted by Stephen, has produced and directed informational videos, magazine format videos, and a music video which was broadcast on the old Nashville Network. Stephen, alone or in conjunction with Anne, has appeared as a guest on various radio and television call-in and interview programs. They have frequently appeared on panel discussion groups, covering topics as diverse as writing, futurism, firearms and social philosophy, as well as their books.
They were commissioned by Dino DeLaurentiis to write two screenplays (un-produced). Their Horror Writers Award nominated short story, “Silent Pace,” was twice optioned as a film property and – the third time the possible charm – they have just inked another option deal for this property.
Their books continue to be quite successful as downloadable E-Books and as audio books. The newest of these latter are fully dramatized and soundscaped audio.
Stephen has interviewed Arnold Schwarzenegger, Roy Rogers, Dr. J. Allen Hynek, John Bianchi, Steve Kanaly, Louis L'Amour, and vampire researcher Dr. Stephen Kaplan.
Stephen is considered a leading expert on concealed carry techniques, personal small arms, and personal edged weapons. He has lectured extensively before general audiences, police, civic and writing groups on these and various other topics.
Their books have been published in English (USA, Canada, Great Britain), French, Japanese, Spanish, German, Serbo-Croatian, Russian, and Portuguese, as general fiction, adventure, science fiction and fantasy. They have published one non-fiction book and are completing a second.
Stephen and Anne were high school sweethearts. Married in 1968, they are the parents of two grown children and have five grandchildren. Natives of Chicago, Illinois, they have resided in northeast Georgia since 1978.

Stephen MacEachern (penn name) is a science fiction author best known for his post apocalyptic survivalist series The Survivalist. The books in this series are heavy with descriptions of the weapons the protagonists use to survive and prosecute a seemingly never ending war amongst the remnants of the superpowers from pre-apocalypse times. The series centers around the attempts of Dr. John Thomas Rourke, an ex-CIA agent to preserve his family. In the first book, a nuclear war begins while Rourke is returning from a business trip. After surviving the crash of an airliner in the Southwest United States, Rourke fights his way across the chaotic horror of the post-war United States to his hidden subterranean survival retreat in Georgia, where he eventually reunites with his family. Survivalist #10 begins a new phase: it takes place after Earth's atmosphere has been destroyed and Rourke and his family have been in cryogenic sleep for 500 years.
