About Iris
Hi, there. I write. I am inspired by nature and the workings of the universe. I appreciate the darker side of things.
Originally from New England, I’ve lived in many different places and have worn many different hats. I’m currently a Head of Operations for an e-commerce website. When not buried in spreadsheets, I read, enjoy plants and music, or make art with my husband. We share a home with one very spoiled dog named Libby.
My favorite authors are Neil Gaiman, Andrzej Sapkowski, and Tolkien. When I was young, I consumed works by authors like Gary Paulsen, R. L. Stine, and Stephen King.
