Background
Born in a small town in Pennsylvania, T.J. Baer wrote her first novel-length work at the age of thirteen, a science fiction epic starring Commander T.J. Baer and her Immense Ego. After graduating from college and spending a dull handful of years working a computer job, she ran off to teach English in Japan and ended up living there for four years. She’s been teaching ever since, and now lives in Chicago with her cats, who are decent enough roommates but never chip in enough for rent.

A message from my corgis:
Don’t trust a cat,
nor thrust of man;
against your plan,
first he shall woo,
then mooch from you,
Yes, it is
true.

Well, your corgis are exceptionally talented poets. ;) But it must be very tough for them, being such talented wordsmiths without opposable thumbs.

No, but every other fiber of them is opposable though! And they believe that squirrels and cats are trying to take over the world…

And they’re absolutely right, at least as far as cats are concerned. Not sure about the squirrels, but I wouldn’t put it past them. :P
