Now you know everything about me.
Except for these things:
- I'm 29, which is apparently the age you start forgetting how old you are.
- I write books for youngish people. That is, people younger than me. Like high-school students, and their younger siblings.
- The most recent of those books is called SUNCHILD, and it is currently looking for a fabulous agent to represent it.
- I've published a few short stories.
- Ophelia is my dog's name. She has a cat whose name is Catten. I think these names say a lot about us as a family. Or maybe they just say a lot about me.
- I have an Etsy shop named after said dog, where I sell hand-painted mugs. (It's called Ophelia's Gypsy Caravan, which you'll understand the full meaning of when you reach the bottom of this list.)
- I can trip over anything. Including flat concrete.
- I like things that grow. Consequently I do my best to turn my balcony into an uncharted wilderness between the months of March and November.
- I love the moon. This is why I named my typewriter Luna. (Also because of Luna Lovegood, but I'll Name My Typewriter After Luna Lovegood didn't sound quite right for a blog title.)
- If I could be anything, I would be a gypsy. Or the Doctor's latest companion. Or married to Harry Potter.
There, now. That really is everything. If you'd like to drop me a line--or if you know of anyone who is hiring gypsies or who knows where to find the TARDIS or knows how to contact the Auror Office--you can post an email to hanna.c.howard(at)gmail.com. Or leave me a comment. Everyone likes a good comment.
