About the Author
Alessandor Earnest is a developmental editor for speculative fiction books, comics, and short stories. Occasionally, she does the odd humorous memoir. She also coaches neurodiverse writers to help them finish writing the books they start! She is such a great editor that one of her writers let her tattoo her face on his ass. It looks terrible. She hosts a month-long virtual writing con, Writers of Strange Fiction. Yellow is her favorite color. She uses way too many exclamation marks in professional emails. Her not-so-guilty pleasure is writing and editing second person POV.
