The Elijah/Elisha cycle of stories is one part of Scripture to which I continue to return for inspiration in science, religion and social concerns. I get these interests from both my parents - my mom as housewife, feminist, lay pastor and my dad as engineer turned into pastor. I have lived in both city and country. There are things I love about both. I've been a cook, roofer, manager, pastor, musician, and more. Currently I work at a motel and am trying to become a writer.

By Slanderous Tongues
Mercedes Lackey has taken history and childhood tales and woven them together in several novels. One of the latest retellings of history - if elves and other supernatural creatures existed - is set around Elizabeth. By Slanderous Tongues is one of the latest, co written with Roberta Gellis, and I find it fascinating to trace the historical accuracy along with the 'supernatural' reasons for some of the events.
