K. M. O’Neill has studied and worked in multimedia communications, software development, education, and data analysis, but only to pay the bills—her first true love is writing, usually at ungodly hours of the night, by candlelight. She lives in Colorado. When she's not being distracted from her writing, you can probably find her playing videogames, hanging out at a brewery with friends, at the gym, playing pick-up volleyball, or working on amateur crafting projects.
