Susann Cokal is a moody historical novelist, a pop-culture essayist, a book critic, and an editor. She lives in a creepy old farmhouse in Richmond, Virginia, with a witchy number of cats, a drummer, and some peacocks that supposedly belong to a neighbor. 

       Susann's third novel, The Kingdom of Little Wounds, received several national awards, including a silver medal from the American Library Association's Michael L. Printz Award series. She is the author of two previous novels, Mirabilis and  Breath and Bones, which also got some nice notice. 

          Shorter work has been published in a variety of literary journals and anthologies, such as Electric Lit, Enchanted Living, Cincinnati Review, Writers on the Job, The Saturday Evening Post, Prairie Schooner, Writers Ask, Gargoyle, Sequestrum, and The New York Times Book Review. She holds Ph.D.'s in Comparative Literature and English (one each) and is a freelance editor.

          Now I'll drop the third person and say thanks very much for visiting.
