Venessa Giunta is a writer of weird things, an editrix extraordinaire, and a little bit of a nerd. She is a published author, with non-fiction essays, short stories, and a couple novels (under different names) under her belt. She is a devoted viewer of the show Supernatural and was devastated when Sense8 was cancelled (Damn you, Netflix!).

She lives in Atlanta, GA, with her husband — also known as her muse — and three cats who basically rule the house, but won’t pay the mortgage.

She’s been called the kind of evil that inspires hugs.

Some days are harder than others; some days I'm less motivated than others. But I still have to do it, just like anyone else who works for a living.

My biggest issue is actually writer's laziness. And also, writer's distractions. Now those... *those* are problems! ;)(less)

Sad news :(

I’m going to have to take Hybrid off pre-order.

Joseph Brodsky
“There are worse crimes than burning books. One of them is not reading them.”
Joseph Brodsky

Winston S. Churchill
“Everyone is in favor of free speech. Hardly a day passes without its being extolled, but some people's idea of it is that they are free to say what they like, but if anyone else says anything back, that is an outrage.”
Winston Churchill

“The fact is that censorship always defeats its own purpose, for it creates, in the end, the kind of society that is incapable of exercising real discretion. In the long run it will create a generation incapable of appreciating the difference between independence of thought and subservience.”
Henry Steele Commager

Benjamin Franklin
“They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.”
Benjamin Franklin, Memoirs of the life & writings of Benjamin Franklin
