She Writes in California

It would be great to meet other aspiring writers, either journalists, bloggers or novelists. If we have enough people, maybe we can even hold group meetings and get to know each other even more.

Profile Information

Who I am:
I tend to joke that I emerged from my mother’s womb with the belief that the year was 1887, not 1987. I am an unabashed hopeless romantic with an incurable love of Byronic heroes, nineteenth century literature, and period dramas. I’ve been scribbling works of fiction since I was a little girl, and although I won’t be quitting my day job any time soon, I see myself first and foremost as a writer.

Born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area, I received a Bachelors of Arts in sociology from the University of San Francisco. At the moment I am pursuing a PhD in the same field, focusing on historical and cultural sociology with an emphasis in feminist studies. My research interests tend to bleed into my fictional pursuits, and I commonly utilize my favorite theoretical paradigms to gain a better sense of the fantasy worlds that I create.

Monday Inspirations: Steampunk Fashion

Posted on August 8, 2011 at 12:30am 0 Comments



For this week's installment of Monday Inspirations, I return to the world of fashion. Today, we're exploring steampunk fashion, my current obsession. I've loved the 19th century ever since I was a little girl -- the result of watching films like Anne of Green Gables and My Fair Lady obsessively.  I penned silly romances set during the period, and fantasized about living in a big Victorian house, complete with a glass-enclosed conservatory filled…

Seven Virtues Flash Fiction: Chastity

Posted on August 7, 2011 at 12:00am 0 Comments

I'm a little behind on Lady Antimony's 7 Virtues flash fiction event, which began yesterday, but as I see it, better late than never!  I can't pass up a challenge, and this one is exciting: Seven virtues, seven days, 100 words each.



While the virtues seem to call for sparkly goodness, rainbows, and unicorns, I seem to skewing towards… Continue
