Bio:

I have no good excuse for the way I write. I lived in a normal, loving, suburban home, studied hard, went to college, went to graduate school, got married, had babies, and settled down in northern Connecticut. Despite this wholesome lifestyle, I've been clearly corrupted by fairy tales, puppet visionaries, British humour and graphic novels. As a result, I write dark, quirky, and sometimes humorous speculative fiction.

My debut YA novel, LUMINOUS, was published in 2011 by Dutton Books, and my next novel, INDELIBLE Book One of The Twixt Novels will be published July 30, 2013.
