Ann Wilkes
Ann Wilkes‘ first book, Awesome Lavratt (2008, Unlimited Publishing) is a tongue-in-cheek space opera with mind control, passion and adventure — and lots of puns. Her stories have appeared in online zines and anthologies. She lives in California’s wine country with her husband, Patrick and their youngest son. She’s working on two novels while still cranking out the short funny stories that characterize her writing style.
