edit data

I live in Mexico and enjoy traveling and watching anime. Oh, and I also like cats. I write books in English and Spanish.

Soy autora Mexicana y Estadounidense, crecí en el DF pero aquí ando puebleando en un rancho. ¿Por qué? Pues, tiene buen clima y la comida está chida, así que ahí le ando dando átomos. Casi siempre reseño en Inglés, pero de vez en cuando también reseño en Español. ¡Saludos!

Nancy Foster's Blog

Getting better at drawing

Yes, I probably should write on my blog more often. I feel like writing here is akin to screaming into a void where nobody is going to read it.

Older posts I have meandered about some inner aspects of my worldbuilding. If I am in the mood sometime, I might get back to writing more ramblings. At least if I die abruptly and my books become surprise cult hits, there is canonical material out there.

Nancy Foster liked The Reading Ruru (Kerry) 's review of Andgate: "Read 35% as a judge for SPSFC5 (team Space Girls). This is my initial thoughts and is not a reflection on the views of other team members. This will be a No from me. I did like the dystopian set up with its rules supposedly forming "peace".
