Too goody-two-shoes for the rebels and too rebellious for the good girls and boys, Christa Miller writes fiction which, like herself, doesn't quite fit in. A professional writer for 15+ years, Christa has written in a variety of genres ranging from crime fiction to horror to children’s, but her favorite stories to write -- and read -- are those which blend genres. She has an affinity for the dark, psychological, and somewhat bizarre, but doesn’t let that stop her from snuggling baby animals as a volunteer at a local wildlife rescue, adventuring with her two sons in rivers, swamps and salt marshes, or relaxing with a good book and a cold beverage in her hammock. Christa is based in Greenville, SC. ...more

I didn't think I had anything left to say in fiction, but during that time I experienced so much that gave me a rich reserve of places and emotions and people to draw from. Now I make a point of writing every day, but if I'm stuck I find it helps to do what I did for 7 years before picking my writing back up again -- do (or even just read) something new, live in those moments, without even trying to solve the writing problem. I've found that the solution works itself out once my brain has a chance to look at life in a new light.(less)

Five Years After My Dystopian Fiction Was Published, I’m Afraid It Might Actually Be Coming True

Five Years After My Dystopian Fiction Was Published, I’m Afraid It Might Actually Be Coming True

By Election Day 2016 I was wiped out. It wasn’t just the endless news cycle squawking about Hillary Clinton’s emails or Donald Trump’s worst hot mic moments. Those were bad. But I was also grappling with a much more personal challenge: my first layoff.

It had come as a shock in May, over the phone and one week before scheduled surgery. In the weeks that followed, I took the extended break everyone
