Mini Bio

The Wry Writer is a viviparous mammalian carbon-based biped who loves to string words together to create sentences. She currently resides on the fourth planet orbiting a G2 yellow star of an insignificant planetary system located in the outer fringes of the western spiral arm of the Milky Way galaxy, one amid an infinite number that populate an unending universe.

She just thought you’d like to know this fact.

Fantasy Bio

The Wry Writer was once mistakenly pronounced dead at the scene of a car crash, was almost arrested at a boarder crossing into Berlin and was shot at while serving in the military. She has studied at three different universities but has yet to earn a full degree (in anything) has trouble learning real languages but speaks Martian, and hopes one day to go into space. For now, her earthbound-self writes and edits for a living, lives in a dungeon, and writes fanciful flights of fantasy and fiction for fun.
