Week 73 of mental_floss blogs

I'm a writer living in Portland, Oregon, focusing on the intersection between technology and daily life. I'm currently working on a series of historical fiction books for middle readers, and you can catch my work in the latest issue of Mental Floss magazine; I also write a daily blog at the same location.
