About this author

edit data

Stephanie lives in the D.C. area and, when not writing, performs polka variations of billboard top 10 songs at subway terminals using her (patent pending) one woman band music suit (this consists of an accordion harmonica, cymbals, jazz flute and full drum set among other instruments. All told the suit weighs 150 pounds and Stephanie has several trained helper monkeys and a shopping cart to move it around). She is a self-described “Polka Visionary” and pursues writing as a means of turning polka into a popular genre of music.

Stephanie can be contacted by looking at a mirror in a darkened room and repeating the words “Candy man” three times slowly. Unfortunately this methodology seems to result in a large number of unsolved murders and anyon...more

“No, I Will Not Work Overtime Because You Suck At Your Job”

Dan over at Game Dev Gone Rogue wrote a really interesting article about crunch. First a definition of crunch for you: crunch noun \ˈkrənch\ - 1. The sustained application of overtime. 2. Leaning on overtime too heavily to solve problems. I actually saw this article on one of my developer friends facebook feeds and expected to click into it and totally agree with everything he was saying. I hav... read more »

Stephanie’s Writing

Abandon (Horror)

1 chapters — updated Oct 09, 2012 08:35pm

Description: Annalise never thought she'd live to see the apocalypse, but after the 2012 election she finds herself in a world that is falling apart. Riots are occurring everywhere and when her ex-boyfriend Cort texts her with an escape plan, she accepts the invite and follows him to the mountains of Western Maryland. Once they make it to their destination though, everything is not as it seems. The power has gone out, cell phone service is non-existent, and the six friends find themselves trapped in a vacation home with no way to discover what is going on elsewhere in the United States. Turns out, they might not really want to know after all... http://www.abandonseries.com/
