Featured Author, Nancy Palmie
 |
Nancy Palmie was born and raised in rural Wisconsin. In
her second year of college, she dropped out, went on a spontaneous road trip, and landed in Boulder, Colorado, where
she has been ever since. Ten years, three jobs, one husband and two daughters later, Ms. Palmie returned to college,
earning first an associates in technical writing, then a bachelor's in communications, and finally an MBA. During and after
all that classroom fun, she followed her life-dream, writing creatively, which is the perfect antidote from her day job,
technical writing. Though writing technical manuals and online help to support storage networking products is a fine
profession, somehow it does not afford a person who possesses a sometimes-disturbing imagination the outlet she
needs. |
Palmie started on a smaller scale, with poems that were
published in poetry journals and some short stories. Her stories grew and her characters became increasingly complex and
the time came when it was necessary to develop them on a larger scale. The Road to Mama Bear, a story
told through a male protagonist, is a complete departure from The Open Season, Palmie's first published
novel. |
