Wendy Devore loves obscure science, complicated emerging technology, and cuddling up with a good book by the fire. She has been known to build websites, edit children’s television for PBS, and test software but she’s never happier than when she concocts a narrative that will make someone cry. She lives near Lake Tahoe, California with her husband, daughter, and incredibly demanding cat. In her spare time, she enjoys inventing excuses to avoid downhill skiing.
