<p>I am the author of more than sixty books, for both young readers and adults.</p> <p>How you know me (if you know me at all) probably depends on who you are and/or what you like to read. If you're a teenager or like to read YA fiction, you might recognize me from novels such as <em>Z</em>, <em>Suicide Notes,</em> or the Circle of Three series that I wrote under the name Isobel Bird. If gay-themed fiction is your interest, you may have read my novels <em>What We Remember, The Road Home, Full Circle,</em> or <em>Changing Tides</em> (among others). And if you enjoy Jane Austen, you might have encountered my Jane-as-modern-day-vampire trilogy consisting of J<em>ane Bites Back, Jane Goes Batty,</em> and <em>Jane Vows Vengeance</em>. Or perhaps you've run across one of my numerous nonfiction books, like <em>The Path of the Green Man, It's Not Mean If It's True,</em> and <em>The Voices of AIDS.</em></p> <p>Then there's the infamous middle grade romance <em>Puppy Love,</em> which I wrote as Jenny Collins. But that's supposed to be a secret.</p> <p>In short, I write books. All kinds of books. When I'm not writing, my passions include cold water scuba diving, dog rescue, and making stuff.</p>
