Erzsebet Carmean
The first thing people ask me is where my name comes from and how to say it. Erzsebet is a Hungarian name. It is pronounced by non-native speakers as AIR-za-bet.
Who I Am (Chaotic Version)
I write novels about smart women doing science in eerie locations. I do not have a hometown. I’ve lived in a haunted house. I like reusing things. I enjoy autumn. My favorite number is 22. I have misgivings about the human species. I hope the two turtle eggs I rescued from a possum hatch (they did!). I am not spontaneous. I love long naps, cold beer, and cold beer followed by long naps. Unlike Meerkatnip, I never thought he said tennis. This list is not exhaustive.
Who I Am (LinkedIn-Ish Version)
I am a Gothic science fiction author. I graduated with degrees in physics and philosophy and followed that with a quarter of a century as a software engineer at companies ranging from global powerhouses to scrappy startups. I live in Virginia with my husband and a pack of wild dogs.
