The Matriarch, an OGN about a superhero who is also a single mother is in this month's Previews! Pre-order a copy from your local comic shop with this code: MAR094065. It'll be out in May and would make a cool Mother's Day gift. :)

Currently pushing: The Matriarch, a webcomic updating every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday by Robert Burke Richardson, Steven Yarbrough, Paul Little, Giuseppe Pica, and Richard Nelson.

Career woman. Single mother. Superhero. Sherry Benning knew having a baby would change her life. She didn't know it would change the world.

Now that that's out of the way, please accept this greeting:

As you have probably guessed by now, I am a writer. I've published stories in several magazines and anthologies -- many are out of print at this point, but several are still available.

Try these links for the following stories:
"Egg Drop Soup" (Star Trek: Strange New Worlds 8)
"Negation Elimination" (All-Star Zeppelin Adventure Stories)
"The Coming Years of Good" (On Spec #62)
"The Girl With the Half-Moon Eyes" (On Spec #64)

I've also published a few stories online:

"The Dead God's Destiny"
"The Dead God's Puppet Show"
"The Dead God's Punishment"
"Professor Thompson Tang Gao & the Creatures from Planet X"
"When the Great Clod Belches"
"The Girl with the Half-Moon Eyes"

But that's not all! I also write non-fiction! (And use too many exclamation marks!!)

Getting Lost: Survival, Baggage, and Starting Over in J. J. Abrams' Lost
Webslinger: SF & Comic Writers on Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man
etc.

I blog here and here.
