About this author

I was born in Blacksburg, a once sleepy college town in the mountains of Southwest Virginia. I grew up thinking I wanted to be a veterinarian; organic chemistry had other ideas.

I'm the author of several young adult novels, including MEMENTO NORA, THE FORGETTING CURVE, and THE MEME PLAGUE. I’ve also published many short stories, for both adults and teens.

You can also catch me blogging as part of the LEAGUE OF EXTRAORDINARY WRITERS (leaguewriters.blogspot.com).

In doing a little well needed housekeeping here on my author site, I stumbled across this javascript I wrote a couple of years ago. Need a setting for your next dystopian opus? Have no fear. The random dystopia generator is here. (Actually, it’s more of a post-apocalyptic world generator. I may do another that centers [...]

“I like things to be what they're going to be. Not what they were. Or could have been.”
Angie Smibert, Memento Nora

“If you can't open it, you don't really own it.”
Angie Smibert, Memento Nora

“Ten minutes later the kid came out trailing his mother. She hurried out the door. He stuck out his tongue at me. Loser, I thought, until I saw the white pill sitting on his pink tongue. He coughed into his hand, then mouthed the word remember, tapping his cast, and tossed the pill into the trash can.
I watched him leave.

He wasn’t glossy. He wasn’t dreary, either. He was something else.

He was all there.”
Angie Smibert, Memento Nora
