N. K. Jemisin
Excerpt:
There will be no tricks in this tale. I tell you this so that you can relax. You'll listen more closely if you aren't flinching every other instant, waiting for the pratfall. You will not reach the end and suddenly learn I have been talking to my other soul, or making a lullaby of my life for someone's unborn brat. I find such things disingenuous, so I will simply tell the tale as I lived it.
Bio:
No connection to Clarion West! I'm just a writer who lives in Brooklyn, who's had some short stories and novels published, and who's got a lot of work to do. Might as well use it for a good cause. See my work and excerpts at nkjemisin.com
