Hi! I'm Seanan McGuire, author of the Toby Daye series (Rosemary and Rue, A Local Habitation, An Artificial Night, Late Eclipses), as well as a lot of other things. I'm also Mira Grant (www.miragrant.com), author of Feed and Deadline.
Born and raised in Northern California, I fear weather and am remarkably laid-back about rattlesnakes. I watch too many horror movies, read too many comic books, and share my house with two monsters in feline form, Lilly and Alice (Siamese and Maine Coon).

It's hard to picture these comics getting anyone into MTG, but they do a great job of making me nostalgic for the stories and characters we used to have in Magic just a few years ago. It's not a life-changing line of comics, but these feel like they were made with respect and appreciation for the characters. So even if these aren't canon and half of these characters are dead and forgotten in the card game these days, it's kind of nice to remember how things used to fit together.
