Wen Jane Baragrey has a reputation for telling grand tales—otherwise known as fibs—and felt that writing books would put this to skill to best use. In the past, she has been an artist, worked as a lighting tech for a band, taught a dog to dance, and appeared on television; all of these claims are more or less true. She lives on a farm in New Zealand, where she is surrounded by children, volcanoes, German Shepherds, and too many goats. Don’t even get her started on the goats.
