About Me

I grew up in Wasilla, Alaska back when buying clothes meant driving an hour away and there was only one place to go get groceries.  I coped with the chaos of living surrounded by so many trees by mastering the art of make believe, until a wise teacher decided to encourage me to pretend on paper, instead of out loud to my friends.  I studied English at the University of Alaska, Anchorage, from which I just recently graduated.

I teach archery,I traipse about the country going to conventions and plays, and I have some of the best friends out there. I like theater, and reading, and museums, and a whole lot of other things that they don’t have in Alaska. I recently took up belly dancing, and I like to make things, even if they don’t always turn out right. I’m a founding member of the Mat-Su Valley Writers Alliance, a group of writers dedicated to mad adventures and bad movie nights, and some of the most brutally honest and well-intended critiques, ever.

I mod on Amelia Atwater-Rhodes’s Nyeusigrube, I haunt AW’s Horror Forums like a haunty thing, and I lurk a few other places.

Also, I like dinosaurs.
