Leslie Light is a writer, mother, and editor, a damn good cook and a pathetic housekeeper. Because who cares about the mess if the pound cake is good? Her short stories have been published in Finding Home: Community in Apocalyptic Worlds and she’s completed her first novel — The Queen of Hunger a Cyberpunk revenge story of a woman and her Gods. It is available for Kindle through Amazon. She’s a writer and editor for BlackNerdProblems.com, a website providing reviews and commentary for your nerd life from a Black perspective. While she’s been a speculative fiction fan all her life and has watched every episode of Star Trek, she’s just discovered comic books.
