From Southern California to Japan to Texas and finally back to SoCal, Rosie Record spent the remainder of her childhood in a sleepy mountain community with dreams of writing, pushing east, and exploring the world. After graduating with a BA in linguistics, she became entrenched in the world of corporate instead. It wasn’t until she moved to NYC she began to write again. Record believes books have the power to hold a mirror up to society and ask, Do you still like what you see? …an important question she asks while exploring concepts of control and what it means to be free in her gritty cyberpunk novel, Tronick.
