Kim Vandervort began writing at the age of eleven as an outlet for her overactive imagination. Her first short story, "The Librarian of Talimbourne," appeared in the anthology Ruins Metropolis in 2008. Since then, she has published a Renaissance Faire fantasy novella entitled "Faire Aria" and the first two novels in an ongoing fantasy series: The Song and the Sorceress and The Northern Queen. Outcast, coming July 2012, is a Young Adult novel set in the same world and timeline. Chrono Mechanics, a collaborative departure from more traditional fantasy settings into the bold new worlds of time and space, is her fourth novel, and will be released in late 2012.
Kim currently lives in Southern California, where she spends a great deal of her spare time operating a taxi service for her two beautiful daughters. When not writing, she teaches English Composition at California State University, Fullerton, where she earned a Master’s degree in Medieval Literature in 1999. She also contributes to the Heroines of Fantasy website, a blog dedicated to discussion of feminist issues in the craft and enjoyment of fantasy & science fiction.
