About the author

Catherynne M. Valente was born on Cinco de Mayo, 1979 in Seattle, WA, but grew up in in the wheatgrass paradise of Northern California. She graduated from high school at age 15, going on to UC San Diego and Edinburgh University, receiving her B.A. in Classics with an emphasis in Ancient Greek Linguistics.

Reviews

[Katherine Coble · Rating 4 out of 5]

My friend Betsy Phillips has a short story (_Frank_) about a zombie in this issue that is really a treat to read. If you have any interest in erotic horror, I'd suggest you get your hands on a copy ASAP.
