I was born in Anchorage, Alaska, and spent my childhood in Tacoma, Washington. And now I live on the East Coast. I’m not quite sure how that happened…. By day I’m a secretary. I file papers, create spreadsheets, update calendars, sort papers—the usual secretarial things. At night, I write about lonely young girls who can speak to engines, Nikola Tesla’s secret journals, long-horned demons lost in Northwest suburbia, giant biomechanical insects, mothers who are good monsters, monsters who are good mothers, lots of consensual human-&-creature sex, and even more broken hearts. You can also find me on my website, where I talk a lot about ants (too many), coffee (too little), and cheese (never enough!).
