Megan Powell
Bio: Megan Powell was raised on a steady diet of Star Wars, Dr. Who, Oz books, DragonLance and Greek mythology. Having absorbed what she could from upstate New York, she attended Bryn Mawr College and graduated with a degree in History.
In an effort to build up an interesting list of jobs while paying the bills, Megan has worked for campus dining services, a car hop, a gymnasium, a library, an art department, an engineering firm, several temp agencies and an electronics manufacturer. Based upon her personal experience, food service is the least appealing industry, modeling is the most hazardous job and Oracle SQL is more aesthetically pleasing than Access SQL.
Megan's short fiction has been published in various magazines and anthologies; these triumphs are listed on her website, www.meganpowell.net. She is the editor of the webzine Fables (www.fables.org) and has also edited anthologies.
Megan lives in suburban Philadelphia with her husband Larry, two cats and 4.5 computers.
