Introduction I was born in Galicia (Northern Spain), a land of rolling hills and green valleys surrounded by ocean thought in medieval times to be ‘Finisterre,’ the place where the world came to an end. I finished my Ph.D. in Biology in Madrid Spain. Then, I worked as a researcher both in Madrid and at the University of Davis in Northern California. My writing career started when I came to live in Pennsylvania in the 1990s. Following my first sale, a magazine article on latex allergy, I published four books for Chelsea House (Facts on File): Heroin, Ritalin, Mad Cow Disease, and Lung Cancer. I have also written three short scripts for young children for a Pharmaceutical Company. Two Moon Princess, my first fiction book was published in October 2007 by Tanglewood Press. It was recognized with the bronze award in the Book of the Year Contest by the Fore Word Magazine in the Juvenile fiction category. Its sequel, The King in the Stone, is under contract.
