The Short Version:
Karen Swanberg's first memory is of sitting with her two sisters, listening to Dad reading The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings trilogy, in their entirety, before she turned four. She hasn't been the same since.
She's lived in Montana, Minnesota, Italy, Montana, Arizona, and Minnesota, in that order, while pursuing two geology degrees. In the process, she spent the night atop two active volcanos, and learned a bit about rock climbing and spelunking.
She currently lives in Minneapolis with three ferrets and two snow shovels, and gets paid to make computers behave.
The Long Version may or may not be forthcoming...
