Bio:Terra LeMay was born on the island of Oahu into a blanket of vog (a vile concoction, mixed of volcanic smoke and fog) that had blown over from the adjacent Big Island of Hawaii after Kilauea, Hawaii’s resident active volcano, belched. (This is even less impressive than it sounds. Kilauea has erupted almost continuously since around 1983.)

After two years in paradise, her parents moved back to the mainland, but even after all this time, Terra holds out hope that she may return one day to live among volcanos and vog.

Terra has worked as a barista in a mall coffee shop, a veterinary assistant, a bookkeeper, a stable hand, a pet groomer, an animal trainer, a retail sales associate, a riding instructor, an entertainer, a tattoo artist, an office manager, and a painter and illustrator. Also, very briefly, as an acquiring editor for a small press publisher of romance novels, but she quickly lost her stomach for reading slush and resigned. Now she writes full time.
