Theresa Halvorsen has never met a profanity she hasn't enjoyed. She's generally overly caffeinated and at times, wine soaked. She's the author of both nonfiction and speculative fiction works and wonders what sleep is. When she's not writing or podcasting at Semi-Sages of the Pages she's commuting through San Diego traffic to her healthcare position. In whatever free time is left, Theresa enjoys board games, geeky conventions, and reading. She loves meeting and assisting other writers, and being a Beta reader is a particular joy. Her life goal is to give "Oh-My-Gosh-This-Book-Is-So-Good" happiness to her readers. She lives in Temecula with her amazing and supportive husband, on occasion, her college age twins and the pets they'd promised to care for.
