About Em: The GIF edition
You know, I hate writing about myself. So I made this as an antidote to my very serious Author Bio page. This is everything you need to know about me. In GIFs.
I write books. A few have been published. People have asked me to sign them and everything!

I make my own outfits and wear them to conventions to help deal with social anxiety.

I drink a lot of tea. I am in good company.

I have a hierarchy of favourite tea cups. This is important.

This is what it feels like when you finally land a book deal.

This is what I actually looked like:

The thing that surprised me most about becoming a professional author (apart from people actually, you know, paying me for what I write) is just how much waiting there is in this job. I'm not very good at it.

I co-wrote, hosted and produced the Hugo nominated Tea and Jeopardy podcast. It's silly and contains mild peril.

I'm also an audio book narrator.

I hate talking on the telephone unless I know someone very well, even then I prefer email. Telephone conversations that I'm not expecting from people I don't know well are all kinds of agony.

I used to love Twitter. Many years ago, I accidentally started my own virtual kingdom there. That was pretty cool.

This imaginary kingdom is called Emtopia. I'm Queen there. Which is nice.

No! I'm a benevolent Queen. Unless people forget to bring me tea and cake.

When I love something, I really love it.

I got a bit obsessed with the Fisk and Vanessa relationship on Netflix's Daredevil.

And I get obsessed about characters in roleplaying games

I'm a bit in love with D&D 5th ed at the moment too.

So there you go.
