J. M. Sidorova
Excerpt:
My Grandpa was a human-ice hybrid. On the human side, he was a Russian Prince. On the ice side he used to say, he was a part of that power which is ever willing good and ever producing evil, and the other way around too. He lived for two hundred and eighty years before he left to save the Arctic. He was really my great-grandfather and also my six-times-great-granduncle, that's just how it was.

Writing Description:
Historical, speculative, and more science fiction than science fantasy. I am pretty sure that life is stranger than anything I can compose. All I have to be able to do is find these bits and pieces of strangeness and arrange them in a way that makes them shine -- at the very least, and at most, become more than a sum of parts.
Writing Goals:
My goal is to finish revisions of my novel, My Little Ice Age, and send it off.
