Once upon a time, Andora wrote a picture book about Penny the Pineapple, World Traveler. Eight-year-old Andora related to Penny as she had recently moved from the US to the UK. Sadly, the book never saw publication, but it was the first of many tales Andora would write.
Decades of moving every few years later, Andora self-published several YA novels under a slightly different name. But around the time her daughter left for college, she began to feel too out of touch with teenagers to continue with YA. Besides, everything she’d written to that point was monogamous and mostly heterosexual. As a polyamorous panromantic, she just wasn’t connecting with the material anymore.
Wanting to see herself better represented in her work Andora switched gears to write polyamorous romantasy set in an elven society where most people are polyamorous and pansexual.
Andora currently lives at a ski area in Washington state with her partners and an assortment of pets. When not writing, she’s likely to be found with a crochet hook in her hand or skis on her feet.
