About the author

Z Egloff (they/them) was born in California, raised in the Midwest, and schooled (academically and otherwise) on the East Coast. At Amherst College, where they received a B.A. in English, their mentor was David Sofield. He encouraged their writing but their abandoned the pursuit post-college; they had yet to find their voice. Z spent the next decade running a small farm in Cape Cod, Massachusetts, driving a tractor and plucking weeds. At age thirty, ready for something different and less physically taxing, they moved to the San Francisco Bay Area to pursue a Masters in Psychology. After completing their MA, they worked as a counselor and case manager with high-risk teenagers. All of these experiences, though interesting and rewarding, failed to fully satisfy. It wasn’t until they began writing fiction age 39 that they knew they had found her vocation. Z's debut novel, Verge, was awarded the Bywater Prize for Fiction in May of 2008.

Z is also an ordained minister with Centers for Spiritual Living, holding a Master’s in Consciousness Studies from Holmes Institute. Z, along with their wife Rev. Dr. Melissa Phillippe, is the co-founder of OhMyGod Life, a non-profit organization. OhMyGod Life’s mission is to bring radical joy to the world. At their virtual home, OhMyGodLife.com, they offer videos, music, books, classes, and more. Z and Melissa also speak, perform music, and facilitate workshops and retreats nationwide.
