About me

Introduction	I am a novelist who loves to read books in order to write them. You can find my fiction in Virginia Quarterly Review (Spring 2014), my column about tubas at McSweeney's Internet Tendency, and my critical work in The Writer's Chronicle. I have an MFA from George Mason University and a BA in English literature, summa cum laude, from Wittenberg University, but my best credential is that I read Jane Eyre at age 13 and have found inspiration in it ever since.
