 
 The obligatory third-person bio blurb: Doranna responded to all early injunctions to "put down that book/notebook and go outside to play" by climbing trees to read & write. Such quirkiness of spirit has led to an eclectic publishing journey, spanning genres and form over 30 novels to include mystery, SF/F, action-romance, paranormal, franchise, and a slew of essays and short stories. But after all that, mostly she still prefers to hang around outside her New Mexico mountain home with the animals, riding dressage on her Lipizzan and training for performance sports with the dogs. She doesn't believe so much in mastering the beast within, but in channeling its power. For good or bad has yet to be decided... Dun Lady's Jess, Doranna's first published fantasy novel, received the 1995 Compton Crook/Stephen Tall award for the best first book in the fantasy, science fiction, and horror genres. When she's not writing, Doranna builds web pages. (Backyard Photo Ops courtesy Thomas P. Powers)  (For the latest information on my books , try the In the Works or On the Shelves pages.)
