Dorothy J. Heydt
Bio: Dorothy J. Heydt was conceived before the US got into World War II and born during it, which makes her technically not a baby-boomer. She majored in linguistics, which provided her with much amusement but no money, and spent most of her working life as a secretary. She lives in Albany, California, and has one husband, two grown children, several cats, several computers, and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. She has written several dozen short stories and two novels (THE INTERIOR LIFE by "Katherine Blake" and A POINT OF HONOR). Nowadays she writes a little, gardens a little, sleeps a lot, and plays The Lord of the Rings Online.
