About me: I'm a novelist living in Seattle, Washington, with my husband and a fat black cat. I write fiction primarily for Tor and Subterranean Press; and to pay the bills between the books, I freelance as a writer and editor for internet retailers, publishers, and magazines.
(Or, to put it another way, I spend most of my professional life writing about power tools, automotive accessories, flaming zombies, ghosts, and gun-toting nuns who hunt werewolves. So it's sort of a mixed bag, really.)
I don't like MySpace very much, so I don't use it very much. The interface makes me itchy. For actual contact information and regular updates, try my LiveJournal or my official homepage at CheriePriest.com.

Hey, Cherie…sharing the panel at Dragon*Con was a blast. Let’s stay in touch.
