Barb Hendee is a grad student and part-time English instructor at the University
of Idaho. It snows six months out of the year in Northern Idaho, so it's good
territory for writers. She's sold about thirty horror stories to various
magazines and anthologies, and is currently shopping a vampire novel -- isn't
everyone? She likes gourmet coffee, guinea pigs, and friends with a sick sense
of humor. The Meaning of Lore is her first fun-filled venture into the
Realms.
