they grow when you're not lookSo I just updated my CV for Penguicon.
I, um. Well. I guess I've kind of arrived. It's really kind of bizarre seeing all this stuff in one place.
And I guess I'll put it here too, so I can find it later. It is always SO WEIRD referring to yourself in third person....
Elizabeth Bear was born on the same day as Frodo and Bilbo Baggins, but in a different year. This, coupled with a childhood tendency to read the dictionary for fun, led her inevitably to penury, intransigence, the mispronunciation of common English words, and the writing of speculative fiction.
She grew up in New England and lived in Las Vegas for seven years. She now resides near Hartford in a tiny apartment with a presumptuous cat and has no plans to leave the Northeast ever again, except on brief exploratory excursions.
She has six novels and two short story collections in print, and eleven more books under contract. She was the recipient of the John W. Campbell Award for Best New Writer in 2005. She's a Locus Award winner, and has been nominated for several other major genre awards, including the BSFA, the Lambda Award, and the Phillip K. Dick Award, for which she received a special citation for Carnival.
Her available publications are as follows:
