This author's writing is uniquely informed by a lifelong fascination with science, machines, and science fiction. She is currently expanding her repertoire with easy readers, fulfilling a long-held dream inspired by classic children's literature. A deep interest in energy issues also shapes her work, having led her and her wife to build a solar-powered cabin in 1984 to foster their creative lives, echoing the spirit of Thoreau. Her work thus merges an inventive imagination with a thoughtful engagement with the natural world and technological progress.
