A champion of NaNoWriMo, Vanessa MacLellan is an avid reader of anything with pizzazz. Words have been her companions since she was ten, forcing atrocious adverbs upon her mother. Her fantasy novel, Three Great Lies, was published by Hadley Rille Books. She's had several short stories published by magazines and anthologies. When not in the office or writing, she bird watches, runs, and hikes. Vanessa can be found at http://vanmaclellan.com.
