NEWS and Awesome Things

Hey everyone... I know it's been a hot minute since I've last blogged. Sorry about that. The end of 2015 and all of 2016 was quite the busy year. Lots of life changes and family happenings. And in addition to all of that, I've been hard at work planning a regional conference for the Society of Women Engineers (SWE) which is in 3 days! EEK!

And oddly enough my awesome news has something to do with SWE. I love happy coincidences!

All right I'll stop stalling. The big news...

My sci fi short story Arch Nemesis about a girl trying to thwart her arch nemesis who has a secret lab underneath the St. Louis Arch is going to be PUBLISHED! My story will be included with a whole bunch of awesome other stories in an anthology titled BRAVE NEW GIRLS: Stories of Girls who Science and Scheme which features young women with a knack for STEM (Science Technology Engineering and Math)--Girls who engineer, tinker, hack, and more, using their smarts to save the day. It’s got space operas, sci-fi mysteries, steampunk, cyberpunk, all kinds of punk!

Sounds pretty cool right?

Even better...

OH YES, THERE'S MORE!

Proceeds from the anthology will go towards to the Society of Women Engineers scholarship fund! See I told you it had something to do with SWE.

I'm so excited to be part of something that will give back to an organization that has helped me so much in my engineering career.


AND...


Yes, there's even more.


I know I can't believe all this awesome all at once.


I've got the cover reveal for BRAVE NEW GIRLS right here on my blog!
