Anna Leslie Long (you can just call her Anna) is a North Carolina native and long-time lover of the written word. When it comes to books, she’s often re-reading her favorites or researching upcoming botanical horror stories.

She’s enthusiastic about other things, too, such as: 80’s new wave, amphibians, a nice meal, and answering the call of the mountains. She hopes to one day find a goblin market or a portal to another realm.

“May your coming year be filled with magic and dreams and good madness. I hope you read some fine books and kiss someone who thinks you're wonderful, and don't forget to make some art -- write or draw or build or sing or live as only you can. And I hope, somewhere in the next year, you surprise yourself.”
― Neil Gaiman

“Oh please,” said Locke. “It’ll never happen.”
