About Anna

Anna D Allen lives deep in the woods with too many books and not enough dogs. She spends most winters snowed-in and trying to remember what "warm" was... which she vaguely recalls experiencing in the 20th Century. She holds a Bachelor of Science and a Master of Arts in Language and Literature. She is a recipient of the Writers of the Future award and a member of Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America. Her future plans include growing tomatoes and cleaning out the freezer. When not writing or reading, she can be found in the kitchen. She is currently working on The Downings of Choccolocco Vol 2.
