edit data

Genalea is a sleep-deprived mom and—somehow—the author of three books: LIFE AFTER, A SONG I USED TO KNOW, and LOVEHURTS. Her work has appeared with Broad River Review, WOW! Women on Writing, Watershed Review, Gemini Magazine, The Bookends Review, and more. She resides in Southern Idaho with her husband, four children, and a judgmental dog. Should you ever need to find Genalea in a crowd, simply shout a line from an early 2000s emo song and she’ll be sure to answer back.
