Chris Baty says my spirit animal is a Weaver Bird.

I tweet @you_love_lucy - it's a mix of writing, design and whatever my odd brand of humor is.

By day I design full time for a company that sells teaching software. In my free time I'm usually doodling, writing, experimenting with DIY and handmade crafts, taking photos and playing with my cats. I bounce genres when I write, but I do lean strongly towards fantasy and science fiction. This year I have one urban fantasy type story and one post-apocalyptic science fiction-y type thriller story. Should be fun, right?

"And I said aloud, ‘Listen you, thing, you and I both know that if this book isn't brilliant that is not entirely my fault, right? Because you can see that I am putting everything I have into this, I don't have anymore than this. So if you want it to be better, then you've got to show up and do your part of the deal. OK. But if you don't do that, you know what, the hell with it. I'm going to keep writing anyway because that's my job. And I would please like the record to reflect today that I showed up for my part of the job.'"
