Short Bio
Best-selling author, spouse of geek, mother of cats. She/her. Owns a lot of things that need to be plugged in.
Medium bio
A three-times bestselling author of five books and fifty-plus short stories, Ruthanne Reid has lived in her head since childhood, when she wrote her first story about a pony princess and a genocidal snake-kingdom and used up her mom’s red typewriter ribbon in the process.
As an adult, she has led a convention panel on world-building, taught courses on plot and character development, and been the keynote speaker for the Write Practice Retreat.
When she isn’t reading, writing, or reading about writing, Ruthanne enjoys old cartoons with her husband, horror podcasts, and two cats, and dreams of living on an island beach far, far away.
P.S. Red is still her favorite color.
Long Bio
Ruthanne Reid eschews most labels. Except for being a Generation X-er; a musician with baggage; a self-taught graphic artist who designs her own covers; a warrior wrestling arthritis not unlike the Nemean lion; a rabid shipper who’s too smart to lay out precisely which ships because of the wars; and an avid reader.
You know. Unlabelable.
