I’m a writer and a software developer, not necessarily in that order. My husband and I live in an rambling house with four cats, four dogs, thousands of books, and more roleplaying game miniatures than we’ll ever be able to paint.
I made the decision in early 2007 to stop using this name, the one I use in real life, for anything related to my writing career. For a variety of reasons, it seemed prudent to build a better firewall between my day job as a software developer and my second life as a writer. I have no plans to connect my real name with my pseudonyms, and I no longer discuss any details of my writing career on this blog.
