About Me
I worked at a technical writer for the government and the software industry for mroe than twenty years, and I now focus primarily on my fiction, writing short stories and novels. I have had fiction published in various literary magazines, including Story Quarterly, The Dirty Goat, Room of One's Own, PANK, Forge Journal, Superstition Review, Western Humanities Review, Feminist Studies, and Off Our Backs.
