author : Rose VaneRose Vane thinks reality is overrated and she spends some of her time in an imaginary tower, with barbarians and knights, mages and shapeshifters, governesses and warrior women. When she isn't in her ivory tower, she teaches historical linguistics to her students. She loves making up bedtime stories for her son and enjoys sharing a glass of wine (or several) with her husband, who really is from Transylvania. @RoseVaneVane;Â facebook.com/rosesvanes
