Muse & the Marketplace 2019

Lee F. Taylor

Black Mountain, North Carolina

CrossoverBooks.blog

I am a writer with a day job in the Courts.
I write upper YA and adult fiction that I hope will cross boundaries of age and genre.
I love bookstores (especially Malaprop's), booksellers, writing conferences, people who talk craft, the Great Smokies Writers Program at UNCA (where I continue to hone mine) and The Flatiron Writer's Room in Asheville North Carolina where I find support and more.
