Rebecca K. Rowe Rebecca K. Rowe lives in Colorado, USA.

I grew up on Mars with Sashimu and Thesni the Imagofas ; that's what I'd like to tell you, but I won't because I didn't. For better or worse, I was born and raised on Earth (like many of us), where I discovered a few things: hobbits, Spock, dating, horseback riding, corporate America and Baudrillard.

Over time, I've learned to travel and became sadly addicted. I think now, if I have the chance, I'll live in Kobe, Japan. Briefly, I've lived in lots of other places: California, Melbourne, Australia, D.C., Connecticut, Virginia and Aix-en-Provence, France. No matter where I'm living, I'm a Colorado girl, so branded behind the left knee. Denver happens to be where I am, as I write you this note.

In-between and while working, and after kind of growing up, I did my undergrad at the University of Denver and a Master's there in Journalism/Mass Communications. I also went to the University of Southern California and received a Master's in International Relations so maybe I've developed a fetish for chalkboards and classrooms. Beyond that, well, I've done a lot of technical writing for places few people have ever heard of outside of IT, except MapQuest—where you may have downloaded a map and I met my husband.

Today, when I'm not writing, I read everything and enjoy works by Haruki Murakami, Jorge Luis Borges and Italo Calvino or young adult novelists like Philip Pullman or Science Fiction authors the Strugatsky brothers, Richard Adams, Greg Egan, Sheri Tepper and ...that list is almost endless, or a fantasy novel by Susanna Clarke and shorts by Kelly Link or Bruce Holland Rogers. And then, when not writing or reading, there is the world of film with directors: Kurosawa, Tarkovsky, Kubrick, Herzog, McAbee's offbeat musical The American Astronaut, and Miyazaki's eight anime films or Otomo's Akira or Oshii's Ghost in the Shell or well, that list also is too long. Tristram Shandy: A Cock and Bull Story is a recent personal favorite. Getting outside once in a while is also a good thing so I'm a runner and also walk the dog, as long as there are no squirrels. The dog wants to dine on live squirrel; she dreams of it and even runs up trees in her sleep.

That's probably more than you wanted to know about me so I'll stop here. If you get the chance to read Forbidden Cargo and the others soon to come, more than anything, I hope the actionquest gives you some small pleasure and strikes a flame in you for a new train of thought.

All the best,
Rebecca
