GroupsAlgonquin Readers Round Table

About meMy debut story collection, Doctor Olaf van Schuler's Brain, was published by Algonquin in October 2008. My short stories have appeared or are forthcoming in Ploughshares, the Southwest Review, the Maryland Review, Post Road, and other journals. Over the twelve years I've lived in San Francisco, I've directed the production of Salon.com, worked for a non-profit video arts organization, written thousands of pages of technical documents, and earned an MA in English and creative writing from San Francisco State University. I currently live with my husband, daughter, cat, and guinea pig.

"Life is a question of nerves, and fibres, and slowly built-up cells in which thought hides itself and passion has its dreams. You may fancy yourself safe and think yourself strong. But a chance tone of colour in a room or a morning sky, a particular perfume that you had once loved and that brings subtle memories with it, a line from a forgotten poem that you had come across again, a cadence from a piece of music that you had ceased to play... I tell you, that it is on things like these that our lives depend. "
— Oscar Wilde (The Picture of Dorian Gray)

You need to update your description now that your book came out. :-)
