Ginger Run

Born into the Gingerbread Man Tradition Janelle has always used her abilities to spy for the crown. She works hidden in the bake of the bakery, knowing that to be caught is to court death from those who want to keep their secrets hidden. But things are changing and now Janelle fears she may be have been found, can she escape before she is caught and possibly find her way into a new life?

Valerie Gaumont is an evil genius whose mission is to take over the world. Her latest efforts were thwarted when her flying monkey army discovered beer. Currently they are in Rehab because no one likes a drunk flying monkey. (Thank you for your cards and letters of support.) When she is taking a break from villainy she can often be found with a pen in her hand. Yes, sometimes she is doodling, other times writing fiction and discovering new and interesting ways to combine reality with the outré. She has had short stories in the Violet Ampersand Anthology, Poetry, Prose and Other Voyages to the Edge, and the online Journal, Gothic Fairytales for Melancholy Children. In 2007 she was listed as a finalist in the William Faulkner International Writing Competition in the Novel-In-Progress category.
