A tail-end baby boomer, v.a.watts uses no capital letters in her name because of an unfortunate tea-drinking incident in her childhood that left her left pinky permanently extended, causing her to frequently miss the shift key.

She began writing at an early age, extending the stories of her favorite cartoon and book characters. She’s written two novels, neither of which will ever likely see the light of day but has hopes of getting it right sometime before she dies.

That said, she has been a community theatre director, actress, stage manager, teacher, and has been a prolific fan-fiction writer since the early 90’s under a pseudonym that isn’t difficult to find.
