janni@simner.com BioI live in the Arizona desert, where the plants know how to bite and the dandelions have thorns; in spite of these things--or maybe because of them--I'm feel like I live in one of the most stunning places on earth. My post-apocalyptic young adult fantasy, Bones of Faerie, is now available. Thief Eyes, a contemporary YA fantasy set in Iceland, is due out in Summer 2010.
I've also published four books for younger readers, most recently Secret of the Three Treasures, as well as more than 30 short stories. I also post a monthly story on my web site.
(Note to livejournal users: feel free to add or remove my journal from your friends list at will. I'm delighted if you want to hang around, not at all offended if you don't, and generally treat my friends list as more of a reading list--and tend to add to or shorten mine depending on how badly I need to buckle down and get some work done in turn!)
(Note to non-livejournal users: you don't need to have a livejournal to comment on entries; you can also just post as "anonymous," and--if you want--sign your name to your comment. You're every bit as welcome here as the livejournal folks!)
You can also find me on facebook, goodreads and twitter.
