Author bio:

I'm a chronologically gifted single mom of a daughter and her horse. Trained as a biological oceanographer, I'm currently working as a Quality Assurance Data Wrangler. My dislike of hurricanes (yes, Anita, I’m looking at you) keeps the Midwest attractive. Otherwise I could easily be that crazy woman in the beach house down the road who carries on conversations with the characters in her head.

The quote I'd be using in my signature if we had them this year:

On being a writer: “Well, it can’t be a difficult job, given that all the words have probably been invented already, so there’s a saving in time right there, considering that you simply have to put them together in a different order.” -- the Sam Vimes perspective, in Snuff by Terry Pratchett
